Anthony: Drive it along side, right up next to a building slowly (like the back of your Wal-Mart or in the rear of a strip mall). Do so with each side of the van next to the wall. This will accentuate the sounds that you are hearing. My guess is that it is your CV joints. The noise only while moving is obviously not engine related. The decrease in noise on revving the engine points to the CVs. It would seem that your mechanic would have checked them when your rebuild was done; but stranger things have happened.
