 Are any of your BPV connections pinched?  The only thing I can think of is
 if one of the feed/supply/signal vacuum lines is crimped, it might cause a
 vibration.  Either that or a bad BPV?  Mine's never done this on me.. at
 least I can't hear it anyway (must be because the turbo is always in boost
 droning it out ;-)  )

    Come now Marc, what kind of work do you think I'm doing over here?   =)  
Everything is Kosher, valve seems to function correctly too, I have pressure 
tested it.  It's gotta be the valve, noise started the first time I drove it 
after installing.  I think I may replace it with an aluminum Bailey valve....
