Squeak, but no bubble!

Ive got this weird squeak on my engine.

Im pretty sure its the exhaust manifold/downpipe.

There is like a porcelain ring around it these where they join, with two little springs either side. Ive had both the ring, and the springs replaced and it still does it.
Any other ideas anyone?

There is a exhaust mount right by that join of down pipe and rear section. The rubber had come outta mine leaving just the bolt and the space the jiggle = squeek squeeky squeek

Could also be you bonnet, if the rubber stops are too low and the bonnet is squeeking on the latch.
