would that slight drone be a sort of 'ever so slightly, possibly, maybe, perhaps been abused a bit in the past' diff whine? ;D

No, diff noise is very rare. Its shite pattern exhausts that drone!
Dont compare all the V6's with the example you have ;)

Was going to say - no drone from my V6 until it's up to speeds unattainable by a 4 pot. ;)

My eternal is definately noisier than the GM I had on before at 80mph, but not anywhere near as bad as Tunnie's v6

Yep. Mine got marginally worse when the gen. one failed. Soon got used to it though. It's only under load that it makes any noise so cruising is fine.

Mine is also blowing through one of the cat-to-mid pipe flanges. I went under to nip the bolt up last time I changed the oil, but, on seeing the state of the bolt, decided to leave it be. ;D

When doing an oil change on it yesterday i noticed it has a Bosal system, its bloody awful though, really nasty drone at speed. Looking forward to replacing that when it goes
