2004 Ford e350 V10 Engine Making noise..

Any suggestions? Im living in this van due the economy...
Thank you in advance!

That PCV baffle has plastic rivets that break off and allow the baffle to move around the valve train. This can cause damage. I would remove the valve cover and pull the baffle out for now until you can repair it. Valve covers are on national back order. Check the looseness of the timing chain while you are in there.

thanks Jesse5, how would I go about taking the cover off or just a bit of it? What does the PVC vavle look like I cant find a picture.
I assembled about 50 Toyota engines working at a company in Canada so hopefully I can figure it out.

Do you think he could pull the pvc valve and feel for the splash guard with a screwdriver? Shouldnt be much more than an inch below the top of the cover i'd think

I dont know if yours is like mine, but the pvc valve is about in the middle of the passenger side, it just pushes into a rubber grommet on the valve cover, under the valve cover is like a shield, which is what apparently can come loose from the cover itself and bounce around on your valves when running
