Default F20C soft ticking noise

I've done quiet a bit of general maintenance on my 03 S2k if preparation for its first track day.
  • AP2 Valve Retainers
  • New clutch
  • Ballade heavy duty timing chain tensioner
I'm noticing a sound I believe I've heard before. It sounds like a soft ticking noise. After a valve adjustment I heard a sound like this but it was louder. Last valve adjustment was around 1,000 miles ago. I will of course will be doing another valve adjustment and checking the TCT but I'm wondering if anyone has had a similar sound and be something another than a lifter tick or TCT. I may just be paranoid but any advice would help Thank you!
Sound clip is attached and humming sound is the intake.

Sounds normal.

The hood has to be closed to take a proper noise video.
