1998 tacoma pre runner engine knock
Hello,
Vehicle described in subject is 4 cyl and developed engine knock. Took it to mechanic and he says its power steering pump. I don't have trouble with power steering. Oil change is due but not sure if knock is pwr steering or what. Any help is appreciated.

Knock from a power steering vane pump is unusual...
Is the pump loose in its mounting bracket..?
Fasteners/bolts missing and or loose...?
Drive pulley loose.and or broken..?
Perhaps a little more investigation on this matter.
Able to take a video of the noise..?
