Possible TCT noise, but its not loud enough. Bad TCT can clearly be heard far from the car.

Mine doesn't sound like this.

The video you showed sounds more lighter (I don't know how to put this) and the rattle is faster than mine.

And the sound is not very noticeable when I'm sitting in my car.

But I'm sure it didn't sound like this before.

I had a similar sound which was fixed with a valve adjustment. It wasn't as heavy as the TCT noise and sounded pretty much the same. Turns out the previous person didn't do the valve adjustment correctly..
