Its sounds kind of like something rattling around. Anyone have any ideas? Its only coming from the drivers side below the intake. Not sure what it is as I cannot pin point exactly where the sound is coming from.

Here is one from the inside of the truck http://youtube.com/watch?v=evjmeOWb1m0
Still not sure what it is. I'm just hoping its not a valve tapping or my cam bolt came loose.

it could be the timing chain tensioner??? I think thats the noise I have with mine...it sounds similar

I hope thats not it either. I dont have the facilities to be tearing apart my motor. I know Fade had his cam bolts come loose and was hoping he could let me know if its my cam bolt. I'm hoping its not something seriouse.

Check your plugs. Sounds like compression blow by.

Sounds like the Dylithium Crystal actuators are worn out, not engaging the warp drive interlock.

That is all...

Have you checked your idler pulley bearings? Place a long bar to the center bolt and then to your ear on each one.Common problem. It sounds like a bearing noise to me.

The tapping sound is more noticable from below the truck behind the front drivers side tire. Any more ideas what could be causing the sound?
