Tapping/Knocking Sound (not dephaser)

Car  Clio 182 FF
Hi Guys,

I've just got back from a work trip (around 70 miles) and I've noticed at idle there is a knocking/tapping sound coming from near the passenger headlight area.

It's been less than a month since I have had my belts and dephaser changed by Mick @ Diamond so I'm relatively confident it isn't that.

Any possible ideas what it could be ? It definitely doesn't sound healthy.

I have also attached a video for reference. Cheers.

ETA. it's an .mp4 file but somehow I cannot upload
 
Most likely the adjuster for the front headlights. Common.
Or it's your carbon canister but that's the other side

Thanks for the reply is that anything to worry about ?

I've uploaded the video onto my google drivehttps://drive.google.com/file/d/1Y8_E5DL-UQLswEAU7jh60rphN0H_kJRn/view?usp=drivesdk

Just drove home now and the sound seems to have gone for now. *touchwood*
