loud knocking

[v8dave]

is there a cleaner for none hydraulic lifters?

Snake oil lifter treatments are not your answer, do not waste your money.

the guy said it could be the knocking is from the oil still not lubricating the parts fully and should wait a week to see if the knocking/ticking stops or it could be cam bearings.

There are no separate cam bearings on these engines. If the cam housings are gone you need a new cylinder head.
You might have a failed cam follower if there has been a lose of lubrication to the top of the engine, I'd have expected a reputable specialist mechanic to have know this and checked.

Dont waste your money on additives, it won't work , your mechanic guy obviously doesn't work on transits, the garage that repaired it should have stripped whole engine down if things got that bad that the oil pump seized or just replaced engine with a full running 2nd hand engine,
THERE AINT NO WAY AROUND THIS BUD THE GARAGE FOOKED IT AND STOLE YOUR MONEY

whats the average cost of rebuild or 2nd hand engine? iv spoken to the mechanic its not cam bearing he said its crank bearing and replacement will be 600-700 pounds and 1 weeks work. he said 100% not a rebuild or replacement. Is there anyone in Essex who could look at my poorly van?
