Nice Day , new noise on my 450

Nice day to tool around and did so in the ol 450. I noticed that on acceleration I got an exhaust sound which seemed to come from the passenger side. Only on hard acceleration. Reminded me of an exhaust leak or manifold crack. I searched and searched and could not find the cause.
I drove it up on ramps got under her and still could not figure it out. Any one out there that had a similar sound and what you found out it was. I am thinking exhaust......but...
