(video) CAm slap or Injector knock?

1992 300D 2.5 Turbo.

Injector 4 was bunged up so I replaced it and balanced it, but I had to use a DNSOD261 as I didnt have any DNSOD265s left.

It is knocking now (see video). I plan to get the proper injector and put it in, but for now, this 261 is better than the bunged up 265 I had in there.

HOwever, Im not sure if it is the injector or the cams slapping. I dont know the difference in sound. Can you tell from this video if it's injector knock cam/lifter slap? I took the oil cap off and didn't hear anything like the knock, but I don't know if you can hear the cam slapping better by taking the oil cap off or not. Seems you would, but Im' not sure. HELP! Thanks.

The video is here - http://www.pauldrayton.com/uploadfiles/bd/jadeinjector.html
