Hi Leon,
I would put it down to Paranoia TBH, most scoobs that i have worked on or listened to have a slight tap.
It is really hard to say without hearing In all fairness mate.

I think the way to decide if it is ok is to put your head in the engine bay.. listen for the tapping... if it gets louder the longer you listen then it is paranoia!!

The injectors can make a clicking noise as well mate.
