Doesn't sound good, but also doesn't seem to affect the way the car runs at all. I'm thinking I'll try replacing the Variocam solonoid on bank 1, but I'm open to other ideas. I'm still not getting any code. Noise appears to be coming from right side of engine.

Is 2600 RPM the threshold for Variocam actuation?
Have you checked your camshaft deviation numbers?
Perhaps the camshaft chain tensioners are shot creating slop in the chains when the Variocam actuators are retracted.
