I would take off the valve covers and nose around a bit. I bet you'll find something unusual... Without the flames, it sounds like a bent or unseated push rod to me. I would check those out, along with your wire harnesses, inside and out. Just my .02

I would bet you are looking at a injector nozzle issue with the knocking and flames.
