Rumbling vibration when driving or parked

Going to work today (22 mile cummute) about 1/3 of the way there I noticed a deep low rumble, definitely a bearing or axle noise. It did not change in turns. It did change with load, gets a little quieter during accel or decel, gets louder under light load cruising. It’s enough to make the entire car quiver. No noises aside from the deep rumble.

Finished my day at work, got in & turned the car on, engine started, still in park. I thought the dashboard was going to fly off in my lap the car was rumbling/buzzing so violently! No noises other than the entire interior buzzing from vibration. I do notice when parked & the engine is charging on the MFD the vibration is notably worse than when it is running not charging. I’m sure it’s a transaxle issue at this point, but curious on thoughts as to what it could be. My suspicion is an MG1 bearing.

Car is an ‘04 Prius with 223k on the clock.

 

I haven’t tried scanning any codes yet, all dash lights are normal.
MPG!/ si far as I know we’re normal, last week I noticed it seemed like I had to use the throttle more to keep velocity wher it normally would coast freely, felt like it was fighting a light resistance.

 

The camera distorts the sound like a high speed rod knock, that noise is actually the dash/console plastics vibrating

 

For some reason the video wouldn’t load yesterday (probably too big).

I scanned it today, no pending or set codes in any of the 3 modules. I won’t be tearing into it until next week at the earliest, too much going on this week. By then I’ll decide if I’m going to fix this beat up hail storm survivor, or retire it & start driving the nice ‘07 I’ve had set aside.

 

UPDATE:

I finally had some time to get it on my lift & poke around. Turns out (ironically) the vibration dampener pellet on the lower engine mount separated & the steel pellet fell directly into the engine torque mount, transferring all engine vibration directly to the chassis.
