Timing chain or coupler noise?

Hi, I recorded two videos with the sound of a RRSC 2011 engine I bought recently. Despite listening to many videos I still have some doubts regarding if there is any issue with the timing chain or the coupler

Could someone more familiar with engines share your views on this? from the inside of the cabin it also seems to noise to me. Car has 75k miles on it.

Thanks very much

Sounds noisy. My guess is chain slap.
I will video a startup of my Supercharged in the morning, it has about 20k miles on the engine.

It sounds like it has weak timing chain tensioners.

Naturally Aspirated engine but my SC sounds the same as startup, let me know if you'd like that uploaded.
