Has it only just started recently?
If you mean the rapid light ticking noise, that kind of sounds like a fuel injector.
They do tick slightly as they open and close but usually aren't super loud.
I remember you mentioning you did a valve clearance service recently, did it start then and did you have to do anything with can chains/tensioners or was it just rocker covers of, measure all OK, covers back on again?

Yes just cover off , all was in tolerence , some closer to the minimum some in the middle of tolerence , then cover back on , that was around 4000km ago, but I’m noticing it more now it’s not super loud but it’s there, I need to change my chain , still getting this clunking noise when pulling away
