I would check for a broken stud at the exhaust manifold at the head. I would also get the motor mounts inspected.

It always depends on the severity and source of the problem. It is an AWD after all.
When was the last time those fluids have been serviced?
Drivers side axle. excessive play? broken/fractured cage allowing one of the ball bearings to migrate. You should be able to see some evidence of rubbing/movement on whatever component is making that noise. are you sure the trans mount is good? also the awd shaft to front diff? which is right under your seat, when it makes the sound can you feel it hit the chassis?
