‪Vac gauge cold‬‏ - YouTube
Thats on a cold engine... It goes away a little once it warms up. Thats 4qts 10w-30 and 1 qt Lucas Oil Stabilizer....
The oil looks clean as new... I couldnt see any sludge through the filler, but there is a baffle there...

You could pull the cam cover, make sure you have a new gasket handy..., and walk the engine through the cylinders, checking the gap between the cam follower and the lobe.
You could also remove the followers the same way, keeping track of where they came from !absolutely! and then dis-assemble, clean, and re-assemble the lash adjusters.
The noise is close, but one that is collapsed is Very loud, close to a "rap". Yours doesn't sound that bad.
