Odd engine sounds...

While my engine is running i get 2 distinct noises...
1: I get a odd puffing noise out of the rear passenger side of the engine. It seems to be coming from the top and seems to get louder as i accelerate.
2: I am also getting a noise that seems to be coming from right below my pedals that sounds like cards in bicycle spokes. If i rev the engine the sound gets more intense and then slows pace at the engine returns to idle.

Any help would be greatly appreciated! thx

Re: Odd engine sounds...

the puffing noise could be an exhaust leak. As for the other noise have you looked at the transmission inspection cover to make sure it is not hitting the flywheeel
