2018 F250 6.2 V8 Noise

[Xeon64]

I am trying to identify this weird choppy noise. It is not the dreaded 6.2 tick from the intake manifold. The truck only has 30,000 mi on it. Wondering if I need to replace the fan belt or if it's possibly bearings. Anyone have any idea does not sound right. Only sounds like this when the truck warms up does not do it when the engine's cold.

Take some silicone spray and spray belt inside and out with it running and see if noise changes or goes away. If noise persist take off belt and see if any pulley or accessory feels rough when turning. If noise is still there take a mechanic's stethoscope and try and locate noise wit it. Fords are prone to being noisy my friend, sorry.

Well I did the test for the intake manifold and it still makes the noise. I hate to bring it to a mechanic because I have never had a mechanic in 30 years ever fix a noise problem. I get that they can not hear it or can not duplicate it.

I use a piece of heater hose. Stick one end in your ear & search for your noise with the other end.

Try belt noise fix---easiest things first---

We had one of our recent buys as a work truck and ended up with a new short block being put in the truck.
It was a 2019
Started as a low end knock.

If I got to replace the motor this will be the last Ford I ever own. This is my fifth Ford vehicle in my life and I'm recently coming from a GMC that I got in a wreck with and found this truck from a family member as a great deal. I swore I was never going to go back to Ford because I have had nothing but problems with all of the Fords I've owned and that GMC truck had zero problems. Could have just been luck with the GMC I don't know. I don't want to get in the tit for tat about GMC versus Ford but from the one GMC that I owned, I had none of the problems that I had with my Fords.

All the above post offer solid suggestions.
If it was mine and it was not a belt or belt driven component generating the sound my next move would be to inspect the oil for metal shavings. Grab a glossy black oil or antifreeze jug and with the engine running pull the dipstick then deposit some oil on the bottle. Tilt the bottle to make the oil move. Take a brite azz flash light and look for metal shavings. If you see shavings a "fun" test is to put a magnet by it and see if any shavings are pulled out of the oil. It's a depressing test. It was always worse having to share this with the vehicle owner.
Now the crazy shite is I have seen some very sparkly oil and the engine just kept delivering miles after miles. That always left me with unanswered questions.
I seem to remember reading the 6.2 having some bearing failures.
good luck with it.

seems to be common with the 6.2L

One of my best trucks was a Dodge. 1984 Ram Prospector with a 318. That truck had over 300 thousand miles on it before it died. Original Engine and Transmission. My luck since that truck has been terrible.

They gave us a lifetime warranty warranty on the motor as long as we owned the truck after the issues we had with this one.

A lemon is possible with any manufacturer
How they rectify the problem goes a long way with me.

This person is having the same exact noise. Someone responded to my video and suggested the water pump.

In all seriousness my business partner has a 6.2 F250 and is closing in on 300,000. I've got over 300k on a 2002 7.3 Excursion. They all have fleas. Its like saying "My gun never jams"... that tells me you haven't run it hard in compromising situations across a high round count.
