My exhaust would only squeal under load check for soot around the exhaust manifold

There is a really good vid in The Good Oil,,

scarey, but good.

Get Josh to bring it to work and I'll have a look and listen.

So I worked out this arvo that it will do it at about 2500rpm and only if you get it there at normal takeoff speed. There is no soot around the exhaust manifold and the front drive shaft twists about half an inch (not sure if that's normal)

I will be going away for 8 weeks on the 10th so I will get him to drive it down then Gary

^^^ this is by far the best way.

Spray chain lube into prop shaft bearings and see if noise disappears. If so, rebuild/replace prop shaft ASAP.

Really? The mechanic didn't seem think it was that bad because we couldn't replicate the noise and it has quieted down a bit since tightening the turbo hoses

If a prop shaft is noisey then yes, absolutely really and truely.
