have you changed the gears lately? a friend of mine has a mustang that was making a very similar noise and it turned out that the people that had changed his gears did not align them properly. the noise could also be caused by a low amount of fluid in the differential. is the cover leaking? you could drain all the fluid out of it and fill it back up and see if the noise goes away. thats all i can think of right now, but if i think of anything else i'll post it here for you. good luck!
