Difficult to pin point or diagnose rattles from video, it could be the cam chain tensioner, valve clearances or something else. If you're allowed spanners a
mechanics stethoscope
is your best friend, cheap as chips off eBay.

A mechanics stethoscope will only enable you to pinpoint the noise. For example to distinguish if it is coming from the vicinity of the valve shim/bucket, cam chain tensioner or somewhere else.
