Touching don't work... Get a Harbor Freight stethoscope or use the old screwdriver trick (handle to the ear) and find whether the noise is lifters or injectors. Sounds like lifters to me... You can try 40w oil to see if it calms things down, but not sure that'll do anything. You say VVT sensor is gone? And yes, VVT has everything to do with valve lift and can be the cause of the noise IMO.
Good luck
