If its gonna be that its fine but someone was telling me it could be something in engine some piston thing.
Tomorrow im going to the place where they installed my cambelt and timing belt to check it, hopefully it will be something like that but thanks for the help.

So today i went there and after taking timing belt the noise stops, but after checking everything he said he didnt find any bad bearing or anything. So after putting again timing belt noise started again.
After this the guy said its something inside engine some slack on pistons or something, because when you put timing belt on the some part of the engine is in more tension or effort and it makes the noise.
And he also said not to change the oil because the old one has some layer and if im gonna change it that layer is gonna go away and the noise might get worse.
Do you guys think this is right or could it be something else?

Yep!
Let them settle after the cam-belt change (oh-yes) for at least 700 miles, and then start adjusting if it doesn't reduce to an 'acceptable' level.

So engine is ok and there's no risk of it going bad? Cause the guy at garage sugested i changed engine and as i dont kniw anything about
mechanic im a bit lost here.
Also can i change oil or is it gonna make it worse like he said?
And how easy / expensive it is to adjust tappets?
