Which noise? The clicking/tapping? That's the DI fuel injectors, they are pretty loud on this car

alright thanks guys, just didn't know if i was being paranoid or not.

I did pull the dipstick and it had maybe 15% oil on it, filled it to about 75% oil recently so that was a scare aswell - but it wasn't DRY.

Can you describe the sound? Cell.phones don't do very good under the hood they pick up the loudest sounds and purposely lower the lower volume sounds so it could be difficult if it's not close to the source.
