Be more specific; Knocking from engine or transmission? Top of engine or bottom or which side? Front or rear of engine? Does it get louder with revs?

it sounds like the bottom driver side of the engine, i don’t think it’s the trans. when i rev it the engine drowns out any noise and sounds normal

jack the car up and grab a buddy to rev it up and see if you can locate where the sound is coming from.
