Suburban sounds like a tractor HELP!

Ok so when I turn on the suburban now it sounds like it has a diesel engine. its a loud knocking sound.

After 5 minuts of warm up the sound is gone. So it only happens on cold engine. Its a 1999 suburban with 87k miles.

I first thought it was the belt and replaced it.
