I'm pretty sure you guys nailed it. It sounds like it's coming from the vicinity of the starter, though from inside it sounds like it's right on the other side of the firewall, around the alternator. It's not the alternator because I replaced what looked like the original at 150K miles -- and it occurs only at start. Yesterday the humidity moved back in and the noise was gone at the next cold startup. The starter remains strong so I'll keep using it for now.
