Like cogs and chainrings, freewheels are bound to be somewhat eccentric as well. If it is the hub or axle, it would affect the wheel as well and not just the fluxing of chain tension. The outer portion of that particular freewheel is most likely to be eccentric, it is the only place matter. If it's somewhere else causing the problem, like the paws or something, then you would here some unholy sound coming from the freewheel.
