Check your oil level lately? Sounds like lifter tick.

Check oil constantly, have an oil leak. so she gets a little low sometimes but always in range. but if thats all it seems like, then i am a little relieved

Take the valve cover off and see if you can jiggle the rocker arms. I had lifter tick, and when I went to replace the lifters I noticed that I could actually jiggle the rocker arms a little. After I put in the new PT lifters the rockers were nice and tight - and the ticking went away.
