Rumbling at Idle

Just last night, out of the blue, I've got an odd rumble at idle.

The noise goes away under load and any time the rpm's are up over ~1300.

It sounds like metal on metal vibration, but I don't see any loose exhaust parts.

I've looked at threads saying possibly a broken flex plate. Other than the noise, would there be any other symptoms? I don't notice any loss of power.
I suppose I could pull the inspection cover and take a look, but I don't have any experience with auto tranny's and don't really know what I'm looking for.
