When one of my W124 MMs failed it was a metal on metal hammering - as you
described - very annoying! It only hammered at speeds above ~30mph but it
truly got on our nerves!
Fun stuff -

I've had a couple of collapsed engine mounts. One was "brand new" from
dealer when i installed the factory crate engine in a 115. I spent weeks
looking for that rattling noise till I finally looked at the "new" mount!
It
is the sound of metal hammering on metal - either at idle, or under
acceleration, depending on which side broke.

I can attest to this as well! If they get really bad it almost sounds
like metal on metal rattling.
