1996 SL500 R129 noise from headlight

Hey guys, first post. My father has a 1996 SL500 in real nice shape and I took it on a drive yesterday and it goes great, it only has 68k miles. But there's a weird noise coming from the headlight on the passenger side. At first I thought it could be the cooling fan or something like that but it only happens with the headlights on and it's real loud from the outside of the car and especially if you have the hood open. I'll try to include a video I took last night of it just to see if anybody can help determine what the problem is.
Thank you in advance

here is a link to the sound
