Guess what that’s where the Fuel tank is. Got under the car have my buddy(mechanic) hear the noise from underneath the car while I rev it, and hear it coming from the top of the fuel tank. So he removed the screws on the fuel tAnk brackets that hold up the tank while the car is been reved, tank starts to lower, Vibration noise fades away the lower the tank goes away from the chassi of the car. Put the tank back up the rattling noise comes back. It seems GM has identified this as a “Fuel Feed Pipe” that is right in between the tank and the chassis causing noise while car is on and engine is reving to rattle against the chasi. Car is going to the dealer on Tuesday 12/26 with the noise already pin pointed with exact locations tank will have to come off to see the fuel lines must be loose.
My car is a 2017 Camaro SS 1LE with 8k miles on it and noise started about a week ago very subtle, now is extremely noticeable. Will keep you guys posted for the Problem Solved solution.

Well, you somewhat confirmed my suspicion that the fuel feed pipe may be causing a metal on metal clanking noise when hitting bumps. A little background ... I ripped the rear seats out, removed the sidewall speaker panel, climbed under the car shook what I could etc. and nothing conclusive other than the noise seems to be coming from the passenger wheel well area. I’m thinking of pulling the passenger wheel and removing the wheel well liner to inspect... that’s if the feed pipe can be seen from there..does anyone know?
