The sound is a flat lifter. The Sea Foam probably loosened some debris that is now clogging the lifter.
As for the synth oil, it didn't cause you to spring leaks. . .the Sea Foam did. I would be very hesistant to put any solvent in the crankcase of a high-mileage 2.5 for this reason.
Best thing to do now is to pull the motor, put it on a stand, and reseal it. Inspect your clutch disk while the motor is out, and replace front of engine belts, rollers, and water pump.
