Tapping after throttle body cleaning

Hey all,

Not really a new problem but maybe a new perspective. I had my dealer do the fuel induction service a couple of years ago. After they did it I heard a tapping coming from the motor. They replaced the lifters but told me "well someone put some kind of fuel cleaner or something In your car and the oils all gummy." LOL YOU STUPID SOB YOU PUT HTAT CRAP IN!!! MY SHIT DIDN"T TAP TILL YOU effED IT UP!!!

Meh.. I have just lived with it since then. Seems to be worst when it first starts and it's cold but I noticed something different the other day. I was cleaning the inside out before taking it in to have the sound dampening put in. I noticed that the sound actually seemed to come from near the passenger side front door part of the motor? Could it just be the hood closed made it sound that way? I might take some video and pop the hood today. I need to get gas anyways.
