Sounds like the timing chain slapping. Hard to tell from a video. Could sound completely different in person

Change the oil again and use the factory recomended oil 5W-30. Also do you have the right filter? 0w-40 is the wrong oil...better than no oil but wrong just the same. imho.
My 96 5.0 has 267k on it and all I've ever used is Mobile-1 5W-30. engine is quiet and uses no oil between changes.
