ok, as you told me, the noise disappears above 3k rpm we can forget 
the high price stuff, good luck, and concentrate to the cam-chain.
with 38k km as you said me, it's not worn out, and the tensioner 
itsself isn't also the real problem. there is this small wedge on top 
of the tensionrail?(spannschiene),which you can reach from above and 
try if this is easy sliding up 'n down, cause maybe this little thing 
has stuck after your job with the cam cover. sometimes it loosens 
itself again after a while of running the engine - h.
