Could be, maybe the chain tensioner is going bad. pull the VC and remove the upper guide above the chain in the center to see if it goes away. If so the tensioner might need to be replaced

alright but according to the video its the chain isnt it?

removed the upper guide, only light scratches visible.
got the older tensioner (left in this picture) so i think im going for a newer more massive one (right side of the pic)
