6.7 ps knocking noise?

Hi, I recently bought a 2018 6.7 ps with 98k on the clock, I’ve noticed some rather concerning noise, I’m not very familiar with these engines but do know they make more of a knocking sound that has engines, I have uploaded a video and would like someone’s opinion if I’m just paranoid or if something is wrong

Sounds like a 6.7 should.

Edit: I also noticed that the EGR has been deleted, the DPF and DEF systems may also have been removed. Did you know that this was deleted?

yes I did, I also read somewhere that having it like that can also add a bit more engine noise

Also noticed the passenger side exhaust manifold heat shield is missing. Don't hear anything significantly wrong.

The thumping noise is from the intake…it echos valve train closings ….very slight in my opinion and you probally won’t even hear it when the engine is hot.

if it gets louder ..it could be rocker arms or rocker tips….very rare on a 6.7
