If it sounds like it's from under the intake, or maybe by the intake? I am guessing it just needs the rockers adjusted. Should be a quick fix if that's it.... if not just repost. Someone here always has an idea.

Take a few feet of hose, long enough to probe the engine & long enough to reach your ear... then start moving it around and listen to where it's coming from... Many noises when it's all running, this can help pinpoint the location at least...
