Sounds very much like the noise Daffy made a couple of months after I
got her.  Banging in time with engine RPM, got MUCH louder with revs.
Car would still run.  Cause - a conrod big end failure.  By the time I
limped her to TRGB the engine was pretty much toast, so they fitted a
re-con unit for me.

Should be obvious if you pull the sump and take a look.  I hope it's
fixable!!!
