Default help with 5.0 motor problem!

motor is making a weird noise at higher rpms as if it has an exhaust leak but i have checked exhaust and there are no leaks any other ideas of what it could be?

What type of noise is it?
Is it like a whistle or a ticking?

ticking at high RPM... sounds like pinging to me... check your timing and fuel trim
