swapped out the cam chain tensioner today , third one i have done but i still get nervous every time i do it, was a bit alarmed when i could hear a slight ticking sound which appeared to be coming from the top end but after it warmed up the sound has all but gone and all appears well

I also have that ticking sound at the top end LH side that goes away when warm... ?? sounds like a tappet sticking, but when I took the top off it seemed fine...
