Chattering valve train after cam install

Could anybody help point me in the right direction to what could be causing the chattering seemingly near the intake manifold closer to passenger side. I just installed cams about a week ago, the intake manifold and injectors never got pulled and sat how they are during entire install, so I don’t think it’s either of those. Thanks in advance! Car is 2006 mustang GT with Ford performance “hot rod” cams. There should be a video attached
