    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.

    May be there is some resource where i can read about how to use stethoscope to understand what cause the noise? It is a new experience for me. Thx!

    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.
