Another strange engine noise, 197. Help please :-)

My car makes this funny noise when it's cold. It's an odd sort of beep/mechanical scrape. It's quite clear to hear on the video below. Can anyone shed any light on what it might be please? It seems to go away when it's been running for about 10 mins.

Got an answer thanks. PCV breather valve 'O' rings. Just in case anyone else has the same issue.

It's a common one this Lewis, damn thing drove me mental looking the first time a customer came in with it... I swore he was on crack

I bet! Especially it only does it when cold. Just need to buy a massive pack of 'o' rings from eBay and hope some fit!

Thanks Mick. I'm pretty sure I'll be able to get some that fit though. I'll let you know if I need you though
