I would have a dealership mechanic listen to the noise and offer an opinion. This is an overhead cam V8 with a timing chain. perhaps the chain tensioning system has malfunctioned and is allowing the cam chain to flop around. A mechanic who works on these everyday will know the answer…Have you removed the serpentine belt to see it THAT stopped the noise?
