Default Odd metal grinding sound during start

I have a model 149 that is making some odd metal on metal grinding sound. Can only hear it during start up while the engine is cranking over. Once it starts the sound appears to stop. It's loud enough that the running engine wouldn't drown it out. Once running and when its shutting down no grinding sound.

It sounds like its coming from the rear of the engine or tunnel cover. No oil leaks, engine doesnt smoke, has power and nothing looks out of place.

Any ideas on what may be causing it.
