Those motors are noisy anyway, but sounds like yours is especially noisy. Does it have any mods like intake or something?

hi no no mods but i removed the front cover of timing belt and sounds like noise is coming from there had timing belt replaced in april, 5 moths ago.when i had cover off i noticed a slight play on ex. camshaft sprocket but there was no play when i tried to move it the noise seems to be in the bottom part which is hard to get at and it happens when excellerating or under load condition or when rpm rise quick. noise goes away once rpm levels out
