worn rod / main bearings possibly. the oil thins as it heats up, and parts expand more.

tap or knock? i'd be very hesitant to drive with knock. worn out valve seats.....
bad lifters, but that's tap, not knock.
water pump....

get stethoscope and try to pin point it. those are few bucks in Harbor Freight Tool.
