I agree that they sound completely different, I'm just finding it impossible to WRITE how they SOUND.

In my opinion there's a very distinct 'r' sound in both, but MORE distinctive in 'source'. Then again, there are differences across Australia just like there are in the US - not as pronounced, but definitely there.
