I hear a faint rod knock.

this engine sounds pretty healthy...id say that fuel leak out of the hand pump is causing the car to run lean, which could be the cause for your injectors to make that nailing sound. Id say for 500 bucks you got yourself a solid car. The hand pump is less than 30 bucks, dont bother rebuilding it they have an updated part that works alot better. then I would adjust your valves and change the oil. Give us an update on this car, dude.

Your fuel pump is leaking pretty badly 0:20-0:25. The pump itself looks fine, just the seal needs to be replaced. That's all i can diagnose from the video.
Do a cylinder leak-down test or a diesel compression test to make sure its in spec.
Check the timing (even tho it sounds ok) to make sure its not off.
Check the engine and transmition before you put any money into it.
It sounds like you hot a good deal for $500.

ok good news and bad news ... bad news ur primer pump is leaking it is that black thing spitting ou fuel around 0:20-0:25 and you might have a slight timing issue ... ok good news u DON'T have to replavce your primer pump!! it is very common for them to leak like that due to the fact that mercedes used a lether seal and over the course of time the fail... replace it with a cheep .49 cent rubber seal and check it every now and then just to make sure when u do that you might fix the knocking
it is diesel

THIS IS A DIESEL ENGINE, IT SUPPOSED TO MAKE THIS SOUND!
Diesels don't use spark plugs, they use compression alone to ignite the fuel. The rattling sound is the higher compression and the fuel detonating.
