In a small bowl, stir together all streusel ingredients until crumbly. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, mix flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. Set aside. In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed, scraping the bowl occasionally, until creamy. Add eggs, two at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in pumpkin, sour cream an vanilla. Gradually beat in flour mixture on low speed until well blended.
Spread half of the batter into the pan. Sprinkle streusel over batter, making sure streusel does not touch side of pan. Top with remaining batter, making sure batter layer touches side of pan.
