Well I took the belts off, took off the vacuum pump and took off
the valve cover.
Everything is good there nothing loose. Started the engine and
the noise is still there but I can tell now that it seems to come
from the oil pan.
Could it be the oil pump? Even though the gauge says there is
plenty of pressure. Don't really want to take it all apart to
check as that looks to be as much work as just putting another
engine in.

Didn't even think about that till you mentioned it. Then I looked
in the manual. That sounds like a fun part to replace. Hope it
isn't that.
BTW I forgot to mention that it is a 617 engine in an 81 300SD.

You might also look at the injection pump timer.
