It has gotten worse over the past week to the point where I really cannot drive the car without getting a headache. I tried packing the area around the ECM with noise reduction foam and that made a negligible difference.
Does anybody have any suggestions on how I should approach the dealer for a possible goodwill/split cost fix? Any dealers in the Houston, TX area that I should go to? My car was purchased out of state and I do not have any long-time relationship with any Houston dealer.

Just try telling them exactly what you told us. They may goodwill warranty it based on the mileage. Also, don't be afraid to try multiple dealers.
It's an expensive fix but the dealer may get on your side, especially if they can hear it.
