Now I am going to listen for this noise LOL, I have a whistle at full throttle in the upper rpm range…that’s a odd one. Kind of sounds like a turbo.

Check your intake manifold bolts,they call for 109 in-lbs,roughly 9 ft-lbs of torque.Highly doubt it's your issue,but it's at least worth checking out.They use a 8mm socket,but a 5/16" socket actually fits better

Interesting, yes the truck is less than 2 years old at 13,000 miles. Done it since new just never brought it up at the dealer. I thought it might have been the way the air intake is by the fender as it sounds like it’s on the passenger side.

What sound does a loose intake manifold make. I hear a noise like something is vibrating. If I had manifold covers I'd say it sounds like one of those vibrating.

Also is it more noticeable on one side vs the other?
