In case it helps people- had a similar noise with my f type v6, by chance during a service I discovered the garage putting their stock 0w40 oil instead of the JLR certified Castrol 0w20. I played hell and they changed the oil to the recommended type; to my surprise the engine went quiet, could not believe it.
In short the engine design appears very sensitive to oil.

Presumably the garage that was carrying out your service was not a JLR dealer or Jaguar specialist?
