Haven’t posted in years, looks like a good thread to get my feet wet again .. Like others have mentioned, no pronounced ticking sound can be heard from the video.. cut you a 2 1/2 - 3 ft piece of old garden hose and use as a stethoscope... if you suspect it’s coming from valve cover due to a sticking valve or collapsed lifter, add a qt of tranny oil or a bottle of Marvel Mystery Oil to engine crankcase.. while most of these products are subjective like car wax’s, I use either MMO or Redline for fuel treatment..
Loosen serpentine belt and spin all pulleys by hand while listening for chirping or rattling sound. Easy way to check for exhaust leaks using a shop vac, see video

I'm glad to take a look if you can upload the video to Youtube and provide a link! Sorry, phishing is very real these days. @BaggedLS4
