It sounds like you have a rod bearing that has spun, but if you upload a short video of the engine running, I can tell for sure what's going on. These guides may help as well:

That does not sound good. can I ask you to confirm the engine size? Also, please remove the serpentine belt and start the engine to see if the noise goes away, this will confirm the engine is having an issue internally. Do not drive the car with the belt off or let the engine run for more than 1 minute. Thanks for the video, it helps.
