M46 driveshaft - transmision alignment 700

After reattaching the driveshat to the tranny after some repairs, I have a vibration in the area of the driveshaft.

It' not loud, but most noticeable at around 30 mph, gets faint at higher and lower speeds. It's not just during acceleration, as I have found with a worn out U joint, but more steady. Not the center bearing noise, I would recognize that from replacing it 6 months ago.

I didn't mark the shaft to tranny position before removal and didn't notice any markings to follow.
The shaft itself wasn't separated, the center support bearing and rubber housing on the shaft are both new, and the support bearing bracket is tightly re-attached.

Aside from just disconnecting the shaft and rotating 1/3 turn on the tranny, I'm sure what else to try with this.

Ideas?
