Ok, so there is a "knocking" coming from the belt side of the engine compartment. I wanted to start with the easiest fix so I changed the timing chain tensioner and it wasn't the problem. I did not do the last oil change so I do not know what was used. I will be doing the oil gasket soon so I will know if it valve knock when that is done.
I have heard videos of a bad timing chain and it doesn't sound like that but hard to hear on a video.
The last time that it was gassed up, regular was put it in, would that cause it?

Any other thoughts?

Have you checked the’s the oil level? Mine was low one time and it ticked really bad till I topped it off.

Get a mechanics stethoscope. They are cheap at harbor freight. You can pinpoint the noise that way. Or you can get a length of rubber hose and hold it to your ear and poke around with the other end. Just be careful around the spinning belt.
