its been almost 10 years since my camaro last ran but if the shield on your cat starts to break off you will hear a rattling sound till it breaks off. just throwing an idea at a mystery sound u would hear more when sitting still.

Update!
Okay, I think you guys are right about it being the TC. I never really doubted it, but now there's even more evidence! I've noticed a 'shuddering' around 45ish when I'm just cruising, when the TC is locking up. It fixes itself if I let off, and get back on it, because the TC isn't locked anymore!
Any new opinions?
I know it's a crappy description, but it was something I noticed and had to tell you guys before leaving. I'll look back later, but I gotta go!

Alright, I went to practice today and just as I got into the parking lot I started to get this same noise again. I was able to get into a spot real quick, and it was still going on. So I put it in park, and it did NOT stop making the noise! This surprised me, so I put it back in drive, and it continued. I put it in park so I could get out and listen for it, and it kept making the noise until I opened the door and it stopped (of course! >.<).
I had the windows down, and as I opened the door it became extremely difficult to tell where the noise was coming from. I can say for certain it's not the rear, but I couldn't tell you if it was the front or middle.
So let's play pretend. Assuming I have no idea where the noise is coming from, what would you suggest I look for with an intermittent scraping/scratching noise, that has happened in a range of rpms from about 700-2000 rpms, in both drive and park, and doesn't seem to coincide with any sort of obvious performance loss?

In order :
1.) I don't think so, since I can turn it all the way in either direction without any issues, and it doesn't change pitch/volume when it's turned. Although 'sawing noise' might be more accurate, actually.
2.) Would it happen more/less ften with the A/C on/off?
3.) I dunno. Wouldn't it be constant though? I'm not sure...
