Vacuum Leak ? From the video it seems very consistent as opposed to fluctuating

Stick the end of couple of foot of garden hose in one ear, block the other ear, and move the open end of the hose around the engine bay until it is pointing at the source of the sound. You will know as soon as the hose is pointing at it.
