I know at least one of my motor mounts is bad but the noise seems to be coming from right under the plastic cover (from the engine). Is this normal?

no that is not normal. It sounds like a wrist pin "pin that holds the connecting rod to the piston" or a cam lobe slapping lifter/tappet/cap depending on what you call it. It's hard to tell from the video though. Check the oil as well. Any check engine lights? Running s*** gas?

no check engine light. I used to use s*** gas a couple years ago but for the past year I've run 91 from Costco. I checked my car again today and I didn't hear any unusual noises
