Default Grind/Rattle in the Engine

OK I posted about this yesterday...thinking the noise came from the CAI or the Right Front Wheel...

Well I was going to take it to my dad's shop today, but he was busy so he said he would take the car tommorow...

I had my friend rev it today with the hood popped so I can see where it was coming from, and I found out it was neather the CAI or the wheel---it was behind the CAI (close to the windshield) near the end of the engine bay, and sounded like it was really far down so I couldn't see..

Any ideas of what could be making that noise from that location?
