Guide rail, aftermarket, INA / Schaeffler
If you hear a clapping rubbing noise in the front engine area when the engine is cold, the tension guide of the balancer shaft / water pump drive is most likely broken. Visual inspection is possible after removing an inspection cover for the water pump.

If you don't trust the often failing GM guide rail (Made for GM by Cloyes), try our aftermarket guide rail, which comes from well known aftermarket manufacturer INA (part of Schaeffler group).
