take a broom stick and place it on the lower part of the block. stick your ear to it while the motor is running and move to each cylinder. you should be able to isolate which area is making the noise.

slightly bent pushrod?that'll make a racket. and if youve got aluminum valve covers, itll change the pitch of the noise.
