It's possible that the noise could be caused by a loose or damaged engine mount. I recommend having a mechanic take a look at it and potentially replace the mount if necessary.

Another possible cause could be a problem with the timing chain. This is a more complex issue and should be addressed by a professional mechanic.

Check the oil level and quality, as low or dirty oil can also cause engine noise. If it's been a while since your last oil change, that could be the culprit.

Sometimes, the noise can be caused by a simple fix like a loose heat shield. Make sure to have all of the components under the hood checked for any loose or damaged parts.
