Hello, I am trying to apply a difference clouds effect to a specific section of green on my canvas. Right now I'm following a tutorial on Teardown's heightmaps, and they use a difference clouds effect to give the grass layer some texture:

This link is timestamped to 5:51, where he uses this effect.
Unfortunately, this tutorial was done in photoshop, and so I can't follow along very easily. I've looked at other forum posts, youtube videos, talked to friends, and I just can't figure out how to use this effect. One source said that the way to do this is to use a solid noise filter on a layer whose mode is set to Difference. This was my best lead, but it turned all the grass pink, and I'm not sure why.
So to be more clear, I'm asking if there is a way to achieve this effect or something similar in gimp. The grass layer must maintain a red and blue value of 0, or else it will interfere with other aspects of the heightmap. Linked is my current project, so that you can have a better idea of what I'm trying to do.
