You know, it wouldn't surprise me. Due for a full oil change this week, anyway so I'll go ahead and replace it with some 20W-50 as suggested by sausagehacker.

I will say that the clattering noise has decreased substantially. I was also able look at the engine at work with my son pressing the gas pedal. At regular idle (it sits right at 1 on the tach), nothing visible seems to be amiss but when I had him rev the engine up to 4 on the tach I immediately noticed the belt that winds the power steering pump appeared to be loose (the belt itself in nearly new). The pump itself looks like it's moving around a bit in ways that I'm certain Porsche never intended. I'm going to try and address that issue tomorrow and see what I find.

Is this a trick question? I just wanted to shoot the video so everyone could hear what I was talking about. I didn't intentionally visually target any area of the engine. Do you see something potentially amiss with the fuel lines?
