08 135i "Clicking" Noise.

Im getting a weird "clicking" noise from the engine/transmission area at startup and when pulling away from a stop.
Doesnt sound like wastegate rattle to me, but its def metallic. I thought it could be clutch related but im not getting any noticeable slippage. Took it into the dealer and they blamed it on the serpentine belt which they were happy to replace at my cost.. That of course didnt fix the issue.

Any insight? I'd like to go back to the service dept with a better idea of what it could be.

Thanks.

It might help to get some video or audio of the clicking? My first thought was just the normal injector noise, but not sure now when you mentioned "metallic".
