noise @ front driver side of engine
Hello,
I have a Jaguar VDP 2007.
After a few weeks of non-driving, when I started the engine, a sort of grinding noise appeared at the driver side front of the engine, somewhere around the timing belt driven components.
Meanwhile, I drove around a few times, and at some point the noise would disappear below 1700-1800 RPM. In the most recent video - links attached below - the noise is continuously present at idling.
I would appreciate any help with identifying the source of the noise.

Many thanks,
Cornel

The usual suspect is the idler pulley bearing.
