It sounds to me like it would be the timing chain. It is very loud it seems directly under the valve cover right where I would expect the chain to be running. My feeling is the tensioner has become loose/bad and the chain is flopping around in there and hitting the metal. However, I am having it checked out by a mechanic tomorrow to see what the issue is. Im sure it will be a repair to the passenger side of the motor, so I plan to replace many parts over there to avoid headaches later. Any thoughts from you guys as to what sort of preventative maintenance I should do?
