tic tac kind of noise coming from engine?

[c7borg]

I've noticed a bizarre kind of noise on tickover.. I can only describe it as a tick tac kind of noise, admitadley I haven't got much in the way of sound proofing so you might not normally hear it sitting in the car..

..does anyone have any idea's?

Edit: Just noticed what car it is. Ignore this.

oops I keep forgetting to put the engine type in ..its the 172 ph2 but I realised to my relief it goes away when the clutch is depressed.. I'm not so worried now
