Default F20B help

I swapped out my blown H22 in my CD7 Accord for an F20B, it has been one problem after another with it.

It all started when I got it running but it was running insanely rich, we are talking crop dusting clouds of smoke. I figured this problem out, but all the gas in the engine made a knocking/rattling noise appear.

Because of all the gas that had gotten in I took apart the bottom end to inspect the bearings. The main bearings checked out fine and the rod bearings were slightly worn, but nothing out of the ordinary so I decided to replace them with factory gaped replacements. The noise persisted.

I had a few of my friends who are techs at dealerships come take a look and they both swore it was balancer shaft bearings. So I removed the balancer shafts and the noise still persisted.

I am at a loss now, I don't know what else to check and the car has now driven 5 miles in the last 2.5 years. I am hoping it is something simple as I have moved on from the car and don't really want to put much more money into it, but want it to at least be driveable from time to time.

Here is a video of the problem, the CEL is for vtec pressure sensor and is only activated when reving 3,500-4,000 or higher.

Any help is appreciated.
