Hi
A noise that you are describing is sign of a serious engine problem. If a tapping noise high in engine and goes with RPMS valve. If deeper knock then rod.
Hope this helps
Thanks for donate

I still confused. The noise is static, and did not increase with the RPMS. What could be if the noise does not fit to your diagnosis? I woul like to have a more clear answer.
