Sounds metalic.
Can you pinpoint a side, top, or bottom?
My 6.4 had a couple of times it sounded like that, went away, hemis are noisy.

Def driver side and top at valve cover. I had the truck outside to eliminate any echos in the garage and took a 2" pvc pipe a couple feet long and listened to the valve cover on both sides.... driver's side had the noise.

Figured I'd add some run time/idle hours to this post since it maybe a contributing factor and the truck has low miles and is supposedly built after FCA changed suppliers for the needle bearings.

755 idle
1521 run

41700 miles on a 2018
