For a small to moderate amounts of noise, you can drill a small hole in the very center of the motor cover, and squirt some light weight oil in there. Then put a dab of black sillicone into the hole to seal it up.
I've done this and extended the life of the blower another 4 years or so.

motor cover

do you mean at the very tip of cover facing front of truck or top side a 1/4 inch back or so? Will the cover come off easy or is it a nose bleed? thanks

Don't remove anything...just drill a small hole in the center where it kinda bulges a little.
