I have never seen the tensioner making that noise. Sounds to me it's coming from the head. I suggest taking the VC off and go over the lash adjusters one by one.

Bleed the lifters using the diesel fuel method outlined in the manual. It fixed my problem.

Use a long screwdriver or a stethoscope and pin point the noise.
