Also, got an appointment with the dealership Thursday. We'll see how it goes.

(you must wear headphones to get the true 3D effect)

Edit: youtube raped the audio. I'm re-uploading to another location

I honestly can't hear anything out of the ordinary. These cars make a lot of noises. I don't think it is detrimental. One thing that I do know is that when you start making changes to rotating assemblies in these cars (not sure about your car specifically), the noises get amplified. Some people experience it (more often in my experience) and some don't. Before you do anything else, try sending an oil sample to Blackstone (or any other oil analysis firm) to see if anything looks out of the ordinary.

For what it is worth, when I went to a lightweight crank pulley, aftermarket clutch (lighter flywheel) and cf driveshaft, the noises definitely amplified (especially the shitty throwout bearing and especially when under load (A/C)). I have a PD blower now and a bunch of other mods and I have grown to find it acceptable. B-cuz racecar bro.
