Pain in right oblique(?) when doing scapular wall slides?

Going by this image:

It's just about where the line meets the External Oblique muscle. I don't have a clue where it is exactly, but it seems to happen when I do the wall slides only. I think it's my right oblique. It's really hard to pinpoint - I thought it was my latissimus dorsi at first!

It's a sort of a popping/clicking/grinding noise when I lower my right shoulder. When it lowers halfway (my forearm is 90 degrees to my upper arm), I experience it.I don't even know if it's a pain or a discomfort, but I hate it. Doing these wall slides everyday for the last while has helped it somewhat, reducing it from a brief sensation (1 sec ~), it's an instant sensation now that comes and goes. :S

I know it's very hard to imagine, but it's even harder to explain. What do you guys think it could be? I might start doing some soft tissue work.

Serratus.

Restrict your ROM to the portion that you are pain free and then gradually, over a period of weeks or even months if necessary, increase the ROM.

It could be your serratus anterior, which IS working as your scapula move

Much more likely to be this than external oblique.
