Found and fixed, or pretty sure of it. I had to flip on my back and look up at the copper line path.

Where the line comes out and starts a not very good loop (there is like a mile of copper line under the dash) it was slap up against the brake pedal brace. I tighten the loop up a bit and made sure between the gauge and the firewall it wasn't touching anything. Well other than one of the AC hoses, impossible for this line to miss it. I think it is one of the defroster hoses that is right in front of the gauge.

Test drove with windows up, AC off, and no radio - no ticky tack noise. We'll see if that holds.
