Your diagnostics are on the right track.
Also could be a chirping rocker.

> Changed the oil last night.  Ran the exhaust out the door, about 8 feet of

> Light enough that with the exhaust normal you could not hear it.

> Was letting the car fully heat up before changing the oil.

> The car was tilted on about 8 inches off level.  Under the car, and over
it
> could not tell where it was coming from.

> Could this noise be the the fan.   If so how do I grease it, and does a
