idle control valve id say. is it coming from near the intake mani rather as the rocker cover? if so dont worry about it they all do it:freddy:
Is it the icv that i can hear ticking too or do the injectors make a similar ticking/tapping noise? I have been led to believe by fellow members of this forum that it is the injectors which emit this noise? (although i have learnt to take some information from this site with a pinch of salt)

no its like that a long time now and i changed the ignition ignitor/amplifier and the coil for different reason and it didnt change it at all.unless there is something else on thr ignition i dont know of?They tend to be ticky mine always was. Could be ignition related as well plugs etc..
what is the idle control valve?what does it look like and where is it?the noise seems to be louder around the passenger side of the top of the engine and its the same around the drivers side on top but seems more towards the back.i put a screwdriver to my ear and to a few different places but its hard to say exactly what it is.what ya think?unplug the icv and see if thicking goes
