First identify where the sound is coming from by carefully putting a bit of hose tubing up to one hear and holding the other end close to various parts of the engine. Then do the same with a long pry bar or super long screwdriver, touching various parts of the engine. Obviously, don't touch moving parts. You'll be able to narrow down where the sound is coming from which will be a start. Report back.

In addition to trying the hose trick, you can also get a mechanic's stethoscope. Take the end and place it against different areas around the engine. The point with the loudest sound is the source. If you cannot get one (or don't have one), you can also use a long screwdriver. Place your ear against the handle.
