Ok, I also found this video and this does sound like my tapping sound. It's diagnosed as a rod knock in this video, and it doesn't start/stop like mine. I didn't see anything in the oil and pan, but it may be because she didn't drive it once it was heard.

I'm just not seeing any knock sensor faults or anything else which is weird if this is it

Im not sure why a 'knock sensor code' would enter into this conversation at all. Rod knock is not something a pre-detonation sensor would pick up. IMO

It was shown on the video I linked; a knock fault along with a misfire fault, and a few other codes I'm not seeing.

It wasn't just about the knock fault, but I guess I could have worded it better.
