Does turning the car one way or the other increase or reduce the noise? If so possible wheel bearing issue.
I'll have to try and pop my face under there this weekend and look for torn boots, thanks.

Makes no difference, straight or turning.
I had originally thought a bearing might be going.

But when I get the vehicle up to any speed, in my test around 50 mph, and let it coast in neutral, no noise at all.

Literally only when in gear, accel or decl, noise is there.
