Might be valvetrain noise. I recently developed a tick also. It sounds like it's coming from the injectors but it is most likely eminating from uder the valve covers. You can use a long screwdriver, metal tip to the rocker cover, other end to your ear, and go up and down the covers to pinpoint the noise. Or as PKRWUD recommends, use a length of heater hose or fuel line. Good luck. My engine guy recommended on my next oil change, to drop some Marvel's Mystery Oil in the motor. He thinks if it's a stuck lifter, that will help free it up. If not, it'll wait til the heads or intake come off.
Let us know!
