You may want to add loose chain tensioners as a possibility to that list.

Should you be concerned? Absolutely, especially if it is pre-ignition or loose cam chains. Either of those conditions can lead to a catastrophic failure if left unattended. The best advice I can give is to find out what is causing the noise and do not drive the car unnecessarily until you do.
