Cam housing noise

I finished putting my 951 back together and it runs so much better after taking care of all the vacuumm leaks..

After starting up at a cold start i hear a raddle from under the cam housing.....after it warms up it goes away. I think it maybe a hydrolic lifter going bad but not sure. First time i every heard this sound before. Runs strong but currious noise??

Any suggestions what to check first....

I read on another post that it could be a loose timing belt...weard but thought i would check it anyway.

It was loose so i tightened it again and checked it with the kricket tool.

Started it back up this morning and no noise....kewl

Some times the hydraulic lifters drain out when you have them sitting for a long time. I normally leave them soaked in oil while awaiting re-install.

I am glad the sound went away either way.
