sorry to disappoint everybody but sounds like the flex plate is cracked
the plate is the flat metal piece connecting the crank to the torque converter, usually cracks at the crank bolts and as it turns makes noise
get a camera in there and see it before you remove the transmission.
A socket is very possible to fall in there but is not going to be on and off or stop when you accelerate
hope this helps
