2004 4.0 straw slurping noise from engine bay.

Hi all,
I’m trying to buy a 2004 ranger Fx4 with a 4.0 in it but I noticed a subtle noise coming from the engine. It sounds almost like the slurping noise a straw makes when you almost empty the cup. I’m not sure if maybe it’s coming from the fan or maybe something internally on the engine? Any help would be good. Thanks in advance.

Could be a timing chain rattling or a really light knock... how many miles does the engine have on it?
