Check motor mounts for unusual wear / cracking? Long shot on a 2011. Video might help.

Also check engine under pan and fender liners

Pinging is often described as a 'rattling' sound and it is related to rpm. If you think that is a possibility then check your fuel (use good premium) and pull codes to see if you have anything pending.

the clutch line goes right down the middle of the engine bay right in front of the firewall. The line is probably rubbing up against the firewall. Follow that line from the top down.
