Default Um, WTF is this noise?

Well, took my truck out Saturday for a little cruise, heard some kind of squeaking...
So Sunday I figure I should check on it, so I cranked it up and hear the squeaking again, pop the hood and it is coming from pass. side.
Got my camera out today and took a short video, started the truck cold,
about 10 seconds after video the noise quieted down, pretty much went away.

This motor has less than 500 miles on it and I baby it.

How about an exhaust leak on that header flange?

Or pull the valve covers, and check your rockers.

I did notice some "soot" around one of the bolts on that flange, and the bolt is a little loose. I'll have to jack it up to get to that bolt/nut and see.
thx for the heads up.

Sounds like a exhaust leak in a few spots you move the camera around.
