What is this scraping/ticking sound on engine start up and acceleration.

What is your question?

there is a scraping/ticking sound in the front engine area somewhere..When I start the engine up and as I accelerate it gets faster with acceleration. It started about 2 weeks ago and has now gotten a little louder I wanted to say it was a nocking sound but as I hear"knocking sound you tube videos its not quite the same.
