Checked the oil in my new B2 and noticed that it was super thin. Changed the oil and now it has a slight Knock at around 2000 RPM and above. Sounds like a bad bearing somewhere in the block. Any ideas?
This video is from before the oil change

I don't remember. It was super cheap. I didn't want to spend much on it because this engine has absolutely no power and sounds like crap

So it started doing this before the oil change? It definitely sounds like a knock to me :(

You didn't say at first that the knock was there before the oil change. Accurate info is always needed.
