It wouldn’t let me post the full videos, too big. I can send them to you though. It’s hard to tell where it’s coming from but it’s forsure from the engine Bay Area not the exhaust or anything like that

Hmmm. Bad pulley maybe? Are your spark plugs tightened down all the way? How does the serpentine belt look?

U sure u have enough oil in the engine? These engines burn a lot of oil pretty fast.

Engine definitely has oil but I topped it up just in case because it was at the half mark, noise was still there so I pulled all the spark plugs they looked okay & i tightened them up. Noise is still there. The serpentine belt actually squeals on startup & when Im driving sometimes so that can be a possibility but then again it’s been squealing for a while & this other sound just showed up…

Check your belts and pulleys. You said your belt has squeaked for a long time? Check to make sure you don't have a worn mark in it. I would even remove both belts, inspect them for cracks and wear, replace if needed, and then check all your pulleys before putting it back together.

Your only other option is to grab a stethoscope or long screw driver and start poking around to find where the noise is coming from.
