Possible Timing Chain?

My Jeep is a daily driver, so naturally I know every new rattle and vibration in it. But this one is like a higher pitch rattle and it seems to be coming from the engine compartment. All fluids are full that you would regularly check (gearbox, Tcase, engine oil etc) What could this possibly be any ideas?

You have slap for sure....I just changed mine and it had a 100k and it was BAD both the tensioner and bumpstop were shot....chain had a ton o' play in it....it's easy to replace, just be sure to line up the marks on the timing gears before taking off the old chain......you will also need a harmonic balancer puller....you can rent or buy one for like 10 bucks.....
