Can anyone identify this noise ?

I recently replaced the cam, bearings lifters and oil pump and it ran and sounded great for over 2k miles. There are no warning lights or symptoms other than the noise, I have taken the valve cover off twice since this started and adjusted the injectors (it made no difference) and looked for anything that could be causing it(all looks good) as well as triple checked the timing. Also I have disconnected the accessory belt (still makes noise) and dissassembled and reassembled the duel pump(looked good). Listening to it with a stethoscope it appears to come from the under the valve cover and it more prominent on the right (duel pump) side. Any suggestions or anyone with a similar problem that fixed it would be greatly appreciated. I am so frustrated, am about to drive it until the noise stops (but that might not end well)
