Does it change with engine speed? Kind of sounds like it could be a lifter to me. Make sure its coming from the head area vs. somewhere else. Since it is a warm occurrence, check the exhaust area... rule out a leaky gasket, etc.
I don't think the clicking noise gets any louder with increased RPM. I found increasing the RPM's just makes it harder to hear. You can hear the click, but the noise of the engine is louder than the click and seems to cancel it out.Does it change with engine speed? Kind of sounds like it could be a lifter to me.

It ran fine for the first 15 minutes. The injectors are loud, but the clicking noise is louder and has a differant pitch.Hard to tell but sounds like an injector to me.
If you look in the service manual, it will list tappets, timing chain cracks and wear or timing chain tensioner as likely causes of clicking, ticking or tapping.It ran fine for the first 15 minutes. The injectors are loud, but the clicking noise is louder and has a differant pitch.
I think your right on top of the situation. I never thought it would happen to me. I put the stethoscope around the exhaust manifold and found nothing.If you look in the service manual, it will list tappets, timing chain cracks and wear or timing chain tensioner as likely causes of clicking, ticking or tapping.
