You would need to remove the timing chain cover to inspect the timing chain. I've no heard of a cam walking. Lets see what you find under the valve covers. Look for any loose rockers.

i have taken off both vavle covers and insrcted very closly, nothing is losse or out of place. we started the car for a second to inspect everything while it runnin and didnt see anything wrong there either. but my dad said he thinks the sounds is coming from the middle. so what to do next ?
