I don’t think an ‘emission valve’ would care whether a car was in gear or neutral (per claim of not hearing in neutral). It’s dependent on engine operations, right? If the valve is broken and fluttering I would assume you’d hear it in neutral as well, but I could be wrong.

Has anyone been underneath to check it out in the past two years?

My money is on exhaust gaskets or loose hardware/bracket. Could also be a weak component in your driveline assembly.
