Post Tapping sound

Have this tapping sound coming from my engine. But as you can see from the video, the sound disappears after revving the engine but soon returns after sitting at idle. When running, i see no loss in speed or power, i still hold a solid 30mph. I have already reset my valve clearance and saw no difference. Any suggestions?

Old water hose, cut a short piece and a longer piece. Then you have one depending on need.

Do not ever use a hard solid object for that use a hose or a stethoscope if whatever decides to let go at that time it can send that screwdriver or hammer through the side your head
