If I were a betting man I would wager a whole 2 weeks paycheck that the flywheel is cracked.

idk i finished building my new crossmember on my car so i can get it out of the way so i can work on the truck a little more. gona unbolt the converter and check the flywheel  little better and remove the oil pan to get a better look and check all my berrings. i checked the oil the other day and its up to level but it almost looks like ive got some metal shavings but it could be my eyes playing tricks on me also.

Pull some belts off and see if it stops.
