Now THIS ticking is abnormal. There are a few things possibly going on here in this video.

1. lifters out of adjustment - re-adjust lifters and flush engine/or add lifter additive to oil change.

2. There is a region under the engine plastic cover that ticks just like this if it is not in place correctly due to the injector cycles

3. Injector damage is imminent.

I recommend changing your oil if you hear this, and flush the engine first, then change oil and filter, then drive for one tank of gas, then change oil again and add lifter additive if still there. I also add ceratec for extra protection.
