Looking at the #1 intake rocker, looks like you might have some bad lifters. But they normally don't make that kind of sound. That sounds more like a rod bearing or wrist pin. But that #1 rocker sure looks not up to par.

Slap the V/C back on drive the wheels off of it till it blows, then you'll know for sure what the the problem was, otherwise tear the thing down and do an inspection.
It's obvious it's an internal issue.
Those engines are notorious for having lots of lifter issues, piston slap and piston pin problems anyway, your beating a dead horse get busy fixing it or buy a rebuilt unit and be done with it.

Well where is the car located?
We are saying it is gonna cost more to fix, because that is a major problem than you could hopefully get a cheap car for.
When any kind of metal gets circulated thru the oil, it quickly wears every lubricated part in the engine. That means the more you start it the more clearance everything gets, not just the loose rod or broke piston you have.

Didn't mean to sound arogant or calous, for that I do apologize.
You've had multiple people on here give some good advise but instead of acting on it you've been beating around the bush.
It's definelty an internal issue with the motor it's time to break out some tools.
