Ticking noise coming from motor

My 2007 Mini, non S is making a clicking sound at idle but especially when revving the engine. I heard it and did some reading , and replaced the timing chain tensioner hoping to fix it, but it is still happening :-(

Any thoughts, I have attached a video of the sound it is making.

Thanks

check the serpentine belt for chips or cuts on the inside.
