Ls1 tick?
I notice a quiet tick relative to the engine speed. I do have a random multiple cylinder misfire which could be associated with the cause.
It's most noticable when I am in between vehicles or near a wall at idle.
I can't really hear it when I rev it or when I open the hood.
It is also most noticable under the vehicle. I did just do I clutch change but don't think it has anything to do with that as I could hear this before.
Any guesses?

If happening just when it is cold and goes away when it warms-up, that is "normal", see:

Here is a link to the video I took the other day (see below). I just replaced my plugs that day and it made no difference. It happens warm or cold, it's consistent with the engine speed. I have a mechanics stethoscope and I can hear the injectors clicking properly. It sounds like it's coming from under the engine, but I have not pin pointed the sound yet.

Does sound like an exhaust leak to me too.
