Maybe an exhaust leak at the header flange?
maybe, I asked my son (he has a good ear, and I aint sendin' him to piano lessons for nothin') I stood him in front of the rig, and I said listen for a tickin' sound can you hear it, and he walked over to the driver side, and then he walked over to the passenger side and said it's coming from the passenger side, and he started to go in the house...

and I said hold on you young whipper snapper can you be more specific, and he leaned in and he listened to the back of the motor, and he listened to the front of the motor, and then he listened to the back again and said it's coming from the back, (as in closest to the firewall on the passenger side)

and then he started to go in the house, and I said could you be more specific, and he said "Dad, I don't wanna get burned, or hurt, or cut, or dead, that enjin is hot"

and so I let him go
