it will be your hydraulic lifters/followers (lots of people call them different things lol)

you can try an oil adative to try to shut them up. or strip the head down and clean them (or buy new ones)

Sounds like Lifters are dry

If i boot mine to 7k RPM it makes the same sound untill the oil returns to the head.

What's ure oil level like !? maybe an poil change will help ?
