74 390fe bottom end knocking.

Truck leaks oil but I keep it full, killed it at the movie store and wouldn't start when I came back so had a buddy jump me then there was the knock, hate to admit but I babied it on home (less than a mile). Then now would like to see if anyone wants to suggest where to start looking.

I'd start looking for the source of the noise.
