Second way if you rotate the heat shield, it rubs against some lower and small coolant lines.
Upon checking, mine rubs against that coolant line too. Is that the cause of the sound?

I wedged the air box a bit and it did get to a position where it did not rub that coolant line. Not sure the airbox will move back to its original positio during driving. Will check further
