Not that it's likely to help you much, as it's impossible for the
receiving host to tell which ARP packets are spoofed. ARP always
originates on the local network, so look at which interface it is
coming from, follow the wire, find the person responsible and hit them
repeatedly until they stop.

It may be an out-of-control zeroconf device or something trying to use
RARP and failing. Printers are common offenders, as their network
stacks universally suck.
