Default Strange noise from ecoboost engine bay

Hey guys, today I noticed a strange noise coming from my trucks engine bay after he truck has been off for a while. I will attach a video but it sounds like a very faint whistle almost like pressure is being released from somewhere. It lasts .5-1 second and varies when it happens normally 5-10 seconds between. Has anyone run into this and figured what it could be? Thanks!

Are you sure it is coming from the engine bay (I couldn't hear anything in the video)? I had a very similar thing I noticed over a few weeks ago. Turned out to be the flex pipe just before the muffler while the heat dissipated. I have a video on here in a thread as well: https://www.f150forum.com/f2/weird-n...utdown-489941/

Isn't an issue, but definitely weird and annoying.

It seems to be coming from left side of the engine bay. I listened to your video and that sounded quite different. I'll try to get a better shot of mine but as a classic car problem it gets camera shy.

Here I isolated the sound from the video and uploaded it straight to the forum hopefully its clearer now.
