Has anyone heard this before (most noticeable when he zooms in on the left side of the engine)?

Lots of looks at this thread.

Anyone want to venture a guess?

i'm gonna guess either cam chain tensioner or starter sprague.

Not the sprag, not with the engine running.

My money is on the cam chain, either stretched beyond limits or tensioner stuck. If either you new to check your valves.
