Default Tapping sound in engine bay?

A friend of mine stopped by and wanted to look at my new coupe. We decided to pop the hood and check out the engine while the car was running. A friend of mine noticed a constant tapping sound coming from what seemed like the engine. I don't think I've heard it before but then again, I haven't really listened to the engine bay while the car's on until tonight. I'll try and get an audio/video clip of it tomorrow morning to clarify. I'm not very knowledgeable when it comes to car internals so this worries me a bit. Don't even have 100 miles on her yet!

Its fine. Its the cam lifters working. Reason why its so loud, is because of the stupid stupid plastic valve covers that they decided to use. They should of went with aluminum one
