Only on decel? (quiet on accel?)
Does it go away a bit if you drag brake a bit (while pressing accel pedal at the same time?

Suggestions
- 
Pull motor. Blow the black dust out of it.
 - 
Check spline coupler, It sounds very dry, Might be even really worn. Apply a dab of assembly paste on it. (See below)
 - 
Replace the rubber disc in the coupler with a new one.
(Something like the one below) - 
Check oil in gearbox, add/change oil. (90wt)
