Re: do this sound like a spun bearing? What's your oil pressure like? If you spin a bearing I think your pressure will decrease. Also change the oil and inspect the filter. With a sound like that I would not run it for anything but testing.
Re: do this sound like a spun bearing? If your feelin' brave , you can pull plug wires one at a time & see if it changes the noise.
Even on LS1's you can disable injectors one at a time, it will have them same effect.
For the wire test ;
I usually take a pair of bent needle nose pliers, & hook a jumper wire to them & ground.
With gloves on pull one at a time while idling, see if noise changes.
Then you'll know for sure it's bottom end.

Re: do this sound like a spun bearing? With a bearing problem the oil will take a "metallic" look to it.
In other words looking closely at the oil & depending upon the severity of the problem the oil will have small metal particles in it.
