ticking noise from passenger valve cover

[Cody93lt1]

first of all bought this 1997 z28 ttop 6speed 30th anniversary car for $1200 142,xxx miles and it had a blown head gasket..well heads were warped so i had them shaved..after i got it all back together theres like a ticking noise underneath the passenger side valve cover..just wandering if anyone else knows what this might be

exhaust leak will make a clicking noise. it could be a rocker not done right or a lifter. but i would guess a exhaust leak

Pull the valve cover and see what it is
