BBT-30.3
HHP-2 or HHP-3

Or, do I not need any of those at all? I'm able to remove the non-drive side crank easily, but didn't want to go any further than that last night, not wanting to screw anything else up.

Thanks for the help!
If it is a new bike take it to a dealer. All my BB30 noises came under load, never like that video. Must be bad bearings as it sounds like a playing card in the spokes. Off to the shop you go.

DYI tools from Park are not cheap, about $100.00 if I remember. I bought a press and removal tool here on BF about a year ago. Haven't had to use them yet. You could do it cheaper but don't mess it up. That won't be covered by the warranty if you do.
