Okay, here's the update. After driving the car around for a few more days, I finally got the car up on jackstands. I just started hitting around the belt-side of the motor, and I worked my way onto the motor mount. A slight rattle came from it, so I asked my wife to hit it while I sat inside the car. A rattle very similiar to what I've been hearing came through. I took apart the mount, and the frame side of the mount (it's three pieces), the one with the rubber isolator in it, has a rattle. Something appears to hve broken off inside. So my car is up on stands right now, awaiting me to order a new mount. I hope to install it on Wednesday (my next day off). I will report an update at that point. Thanks to all so far for the help!
