Default Engine knock or nah?

00 accord 2.3 218k
I know videos suck for this. The reason I ask is that I am going to be doing a JDM Trans swap this coming spring. I'm toying with the idea of doing a new engine as well as I think there may be a slight knock. What do you guys think?

Pardon the leaves, it is fall here in Wisconsin.

I hear the high pitch and quieter valves but not sure about the clunkier sound.

Sounds like the typical Honda wrist pin knock to me.

Checked the engine compression a bit ago. All cylinders came back in the low 200's.
