So getting under the hood and reving it with the throttle body never crossed your mind???

If it sounds like there is a little man in the engine tapping with a hammer, then its likely a valve lifter.
Do a compression check on all the cylinders to see if one cylinder is low. That will likely be the one with the noise. If it is a deeper sounding knock, then those are usually a rod bearing.
