When I would get piston slap in my old car it sounded like "smack! smack! smack!" The sound clip is hard for me to understand. The sound from your pulleys is loud. Then I hear what sounds like your lifters or injectors.. If you think there is an internal problem, take a screw driver and a rag. Place the head of the screw driver near your header on the engine and the handle pressed up to your ear, listen for distortion(s/p?) while you idle or rev. Try it with each cylinder. You can also lay the rag down and do the same thing to the top of the head to listen to the internals. Just make sure you put the pointy side down!
