No loose crank pulley or balancer bolts? Your problem sounds exactly like mine. Wish I could load the video.

I need to ask a question of reply 18 in this string if I might.
The op states that when the belts are off the noise goes away, so how in your mind could the issue be a rod smacking a dented oil pan?

Woke up this moring, looked at the phone. Message "are you sure you checked the bolts". So I immeadialty thought how many times I was told, and I told, are you sure. So I thought yeah I am sure. lol. Checked this morning---tight--tight--loose----tight-----tight--tight--now loose-tight---tight---tight---tight---tight---. started car no noise BINGO So I am going with 2 bolts not tight, one more than the other. I believe it was Greg Reid and ROHT----- the big clue I couldn't shake---- Like it's just 'projected' into space. Thanks People. I new it was something stupid--ME. lol

lol... If you're stupid, so am I. I chased that noise for quite some time. Adjusted valves at least 3 times, replaced water pump, tried every combination of belt/no belt, etc.

I had a knock I couldn't figure out on my 67 Catalina . I disconnected the spark plugs one at a time and did the squirt gun deal. I finally found out it was the torque converter bolts or nuts (which ever) that came loose. I tightened them up and the knock was gone.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
