I'm not an expert on snapped crank but that didn't sound bad enough
If it's right at the front then the pulley will wobble about

I think that man is a grade A idiot, saying the shell bearings only have oil supplied once each crank revolution!

They post it as 'entertainment', most of their stuff is opinions loosely based on someone else's experiences with a stiff ignoring of engineering practices, facts and anything else they find inconvenient to their view. Don't criticise them in the presence of one of there doting followers though, they're worse than the Taylor Swift lot!

Please see youtube video with belt ON crankshaft pulley

Does the crankshaft seem ok?

Not sure its crank snapped but as suggested above do not run it, needs investigating, drop the oil have a look for bits, as suggested check cam pulley

Someone suggested taking the belt off the crankshaft pulley just to check if the noise is still there

I did that, see video below, it still makes the same noise

As the crankshaft is turning, does that mean the crankshaft is ok?

ANY SUGGESTIONS? THANKS

No don't take belt off any of the pulleys is what is called an interference engine would be a disaster, would reccomend as lynall said remove cam cover look at cam pulleys, looking deeper with this engine is quite involved cam cover and rocker covers are about as much as you can do without getting too involved, very hard for diagnosis with record sound, but don't think it's broken crank as this normally causes unbelievable vibration/shaking but be careful not to cause further damage

Thanks for your response.
Do you know anyone qualified to diagnose?
I will happily pay for someone to diagnose and fix.
I’m in Romford.

The accessories belt is not the same as the cam belt

Sorry mate thought was talking about cam belt as lynall had mentioned opening up cover, but would still be extremely careful of running
