Try to reproduce with the engine off. Use a long lever like 8' 2x4 and push up on various suspension/ drive train parts.
Check the six bolts that hold the stiffening plate I've heard similar squeaks from similar plates. Check on any heat shields as they are high on suspect list

Interesting very interesting, honestly I really disqualified suspension (in my mind) as I’ve crawled around under there enough from all the suspension work I’ve done. I haven’t thought to try moving suspension parts w/ engine off. Will do that.
I forgot to mention that the heat shielding was my first suspect. Although I’m not sure how far it reaches up into the bay. I’ve gone about as far as the cats underneath the car, should I look further up? I also had the stiffening plate off last night (the night before this video) and the sound is the same as before and after I reinstalled the plate. I’ll try levering drivetrain parts as well.
Another note: the engine mounts are new as well.
