Hope for an exhaust leak. Bad Bearings means total tear down or replace. If it is a knock from the crank bearings you don't want to drive it if you want to repair the motor. The sooner you stop running it the less damage will be on the crank.

okay so i have come to the conclusion that the noise is no knock, it is a loose torque converter bolt, maybe one fell out, hopefully not.. but all i know is the noise is coming from the back of the engine and you can hear it clearly in the car but outside the car looking at the engine from above you cant tell.. gonna check that asap.

OK, Check that out let us know what you find. You can get clues by running searches on Google for knocking transmission or keywords like that.
