Err this is bugging me 
Its coming from where the arrow is in this picture, except its on the drives side mostly, not the passenger side as shown in the picture. I mean the ticking is RIGHT under it. It does increase with throttle response but not too much. I looked today and felt my injectors, no pulsing.
Any help is appreciated,

If its not gonna hurt the car, Im cool with that. You cant hear the ticking in the car, or when you stand outside it. Only when the hoods Poped.

Do you have miss or anything like that? It definately sounds like injectors to me, especially with where you say its coming from. I have new injectors on my gta and they're pretty noisy but they're fine....

Nope no misses, the car runs 100% perfect. I could have swore I didnt hear it before.
I put my finger on the injectors and felt no pulsing, so someone told me its not the injectors then.
