Did you clean it out?  Perhaps a little something there rattleing around 
in the keybed or bottom of the piano?  Any screw loose can also make a 
nasty noise.  Tighten every screw you can find.  Also, (by experience!) 
try seeing if there's a loose screw on a electric plug in cover on the 
wall behind the piano!! That one took an hour to find once!!

Also, the buzz could be yet a neighboring part.  It'll take awhile to find 
it. Charge accordiingly,

Good luck
Paul

Put a new one on , still noisy , ca glued the metal fork, tightened butt 
flange screws.
Also makes noise when hammer falls back on rest rail.
