slight vibration / droning noise

As above, along with all the other issues that seem to be cropping up, i now have a quiet vibration / drone noise on deceleration coming from what seems like the front of the car. I am assuming it driveline related as when the gearbox changes down, as the car slows down, the noise increases with the revs and then repeats, only disappearing when the gearbox drops into neutral or when i put it into neutral while driving along. Thoughts are front transfer box as no change in tone when changing direction kind of ruling out wheel bearings. Since the gearbox was repaired with a new valve block, the car has been better, though not perfect. First trip out towing i got a gearbox fault traction reduced message so thinking i may have a haldex issue aswell. The vibration at speed i was having issues with is still present, as i havent done anything yet to fix that, however on some road surfaces i realised it doesnt happen at all and on others it presents as low as 50mph, so now thinking driveshafts rather than tyres. Any thoughts appreciated as always, given that i am likely to have a garage carry out any work required, i dont want to go in blind.
