Could be your Hydraulic Lash Adjusters. They certainly can tick pretty loudly. Might be worth the time to pull the valve cover off and check to make sure none of them are "deflated". If you do check them, take a peak at the rockers as well, for any wear.

if its on the intake manifold side, only thing i can think of is either the injectors or like they said, the rocks/valve-train.

also, check your oil and what kind of oil do you use?
