Throttle linkage with the main squeak from the heim joint that is mounted directly behind the carb. As the engine moved back and forth, the throttle shaft slips thru the heim joint. A dab of grease and the problem is solved.

I greased the throttle pedal shaft as well, but I don’t think it was contributing.

This shows sounds travel and are very hard to determine the origin.
