HELP! Sudden loud ticking only during coldstart and driving

I'm going off the sound in a Youtube video so take this with a grain of salt: sounds like an exhaust leak to me. Get a length of garden hose

Get a length of garden hose or similar. Put one end to your ear and move the other end around the manifold, exhaust pipe, and engine compartment to find the source of the noise. Keep the hose, your hair, clothing, etc away from moving parts.
