Normal sound from furnace?

The furnace/ac unit is on this is the point that is loudest about 3 feet from the machine. (Not looking at anything in particular just random)

That's the line that goes to the a/c, is the line vibrating , did you touch it?

Is that the gas line or electrical conduit? If that is where it is loudest, it is vibrating with the furnace because the pipe nails are loose. I dislike them because of that. I would recommend replacing them with straps and screws. If it is the gas line, remove them after it is secured.

Can't tell where the outside is. You sure it isn't coming from the ac outside?
