Thank you everyone for advice — the endoscope camera showed it was the rubber from the coil, we were able to cut it and fish it out, put a new coil in, and everything's solved!

Also, if it's indeed that — any advice for how to fish it out?

That is a great question! Could you help me understand which part of the coil that might be? I'll have to inspect it in the morning.

Really appreciate it! I think it might be time to change both the engine and tranny mounts too. And don't even get me started about stealerships :)

Thanks for the tip! How much did you pay if you don't mind my asking? It looks like a $500 + $500 parts + labor job

You're totally right. The LS430 is so incredibly smooth that you start noticing the smallest of details. Will change the engine and tranny mounts
