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?

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.
I used to have long hair, took acid and went to hip joints. Now I long for hair, take antacid and need a new hip joint
