Check you oil level. Do you use Marvel Mystery Oil in your gas?
Not knowing more than your comments and short video. If it was my car, I would change the oil, using 20w-50 high detergent, than add one blue bottle of STP as the last half quart. Remember, only four and one half quarts are needed unless the oil pan has been dropped. Than MMO in you gas.
To me it sounds like a lot of Model A’s I have been around that just need some attention. Noisy valves, high mileage on engine, etc.
$20.00 could be very well spent. I have given this advise many times over the years. Most of the time it has worked out and gotten many more years out of an older engine.
Good luck.

I will try this next in the sequence of tests - when Mrs. G isn't yelling at me for spending too much time with the Model A mistress.
