it doesnt sound too bad. doesnt sound like a bearing normally sounds. it could be a lifter. try taking the belts off and see if it sounds the same

ive checked the leads it cant be the leads cause it died down in the video it was really loud then it got quiet

drive belts and both of them?

I'm sorry to say it but that sounds like a big end to me.

Does the noise reduce as the engine warms up?

yeah when its at normal running temp the noise is gone but when u giv it a bit of revs it sounds like something is loose in there it has a weird noise too it quick rattle n then gone like something jumping around inside

As said by WhiteRX, Lifter Problem...?

Are you still driving the car? If so, can you hear the sound during gear changes??

nah dont wanna drive it scared its gonna break down on me but i have noticed a weird squeeking kinda noise from the engine before i found out this problem cruising in 5th you stick your head out the window u can hear a loose noise

Good - don't drive it. Give Jim Hall a call and see if he can come out and look at it for you between jobs (so you don't have to wait a week or more)

Squeeking, Rattling, knocking........Bye bye big end!

Pull the dipstick out and look at the oil on the tip (out in the sun)........see any sparkely bits?
