Will do--apparently they sent the info over to Subaru Friday afternoon. I'm not sure what the expected wait period is, but my hope is they'll at least give approval to tear into it to see what the issue is soon. I'm pretty certain it's the spun rod bearing issue since there are example of that happening on the forums and I was getting the same sound that I heard in other youtube videos.

In the end my only maintenance proof I have is:
1. FB picture dated with car on ramps and the oil draining on 9/2015
2. Receipt from O'Reily showing purchase of mobil1 0w-20 oil in 3/2016
3. Receipt on Amazon showing royal purple 0w-20 and OEM filter in 10/2016
