Is this just at start up and its cold or does it do this when its warm too? This video is on the passenger side right?

How many miles on it?could have sticky lifter or something but sounds ok to me mine is louder in the cold and i have a new cam/lifters these engines will always make some sort of noise even when engine is hot. When a lifter/cam goes you will know it will be Hella loud and you will missfire

Yes. It had been driven, and idled while using a tire inflator.

Same, being a machinist, and now a fit and finish technician at an automotive plant, any noises drive me nuts. OCD is great for my career path but bad for driving trucks on roads that are better suited for logging than highways, its rough.

Sounds like injectors and you hear it so well because your engine is nice and quiet

I say nah.
I just hear normal injector noise, the injectors on these trucks are really noisy.

For comparison, here's mine. Multiple broken exhaust manifold bolts, possible lifter noise.

I don't think it's a lifter. It does seem decently loud however, that would drive me nuts and cause me to research more.
