Are you sure its actually rubbing something? Not trying to be rude lol, but can you feel a vibration or are you hearing something?
Could it be a leak?
One way to check for vibrations since your bbk pipe is all new and shiny is to check for any rub marks on it where it may be vibrating.
Also as crappy as it sounds, you may need to simply take it off and put it back on. Maybe its just how a bolt is tightened or something that is lifing up a certain section causing the vibration or noise.
Best of luck
