timing chain noise on startup

[97vulcan]

I would let a mechanic listen to it, but once the cars warmed up, it doesn't make the noise. Does someone have a sound clip of what the timing chain noise sounds like so I can compare the two?

Well, they would have to keep the car over night then. It's done all the time.
