106 gti knocking, sounds like a van?

[Vesvious]

Hey everyone, I've just done a head gasket change on my gti, it started first time but it idles a little rough, however my main concern is the loud tapping/knocking noise from the engine, I've read it could be loose spark plugs so I've tightened them up a little more, does anyone have any ideas that could help me?

Cheers!

Please excuse the state of the rocker cover :(

Haven't watched the vid but Is oil getting to the top end? Of the head gasket is on upside down this can cause a lack of oil in the head and hence the tapping

I am fairly sure the head gasket is on the right way, I resealed the inlet cover as it looked like it was leaking a little and there was oil up in with the cam, and I can see it in the exhaust cam when I take off the cap when the engine is running
