55000 never had a belt make that loud of a noise but I'll check

From what I hear on video for the most part sounds normal, however I do hear a random non rhythmic tick. Is that what you are hearing as well? What it sounds like to me is the cam phasers, make sure your using a good quality and proper weight oil and motorcraft filter. I know these thing were not a big deal in the past, but in today engines these are critical items.

I use Mobil one full synthetic oil with a motorcraft filter. Would you recommend something else? I actually did not pick up on the non rythmatic tick until I watched the video again I was more worried about the clicking noise that follows a asthmatic pattern as I do not recall it ever sounding like that.

The only sound that would have me worried is the non rythmatic tick you have there. I have 40k on mine and never heard that one. I am also using full synthetic Mobil one with the motocraft  filter. I only use 94 octane since day one even with no tune. The rest sounds normal, take the sho plastic  cover off the engine and try to take the clip again. We may be able to hear it better that way.

It's funny how loud the engine is w/o the cover and the hood open.

That oil filter combination is fine. But the rest of sound as said before sounds entirely normal. Perhaps we are hearing a little piston slap, but if that wasn't a concern before. I wouldn't worry about it, perhaps your phone is able to pick up on some sounds that we wouldn't normally hear. Also cam phaser clatter is more prominent at start up and stop after a few seconds.
