mine was passenger side and was the loudest while below the truck. another way to identify sound was the same as mine would be to use a stethoscope and on the exhaust manifold passenger side that is where it was very loud also.

I have a build date of 07/11 on my 2011 F150 5.0, over 72k miles, 2nd owner. Original engine. Registered my vin on
owner.ford.com today and my vin shows no recalls. My ear doesn’t hear any knocks, just the ticking. Do dealerships cover tsb’s?

A TSB may be used, referenced, when performing a recall and/or service performed for covered warranty or ESP (Extended Service Plan).
