Thanks! There was no collapse when pressure applied to the pushrodBefore you start it with a valve cover off push on each pushrod and see if the lifter collapses. They should never just collapse if you push on one.

Hi all, I hope this is the right place to post.
I'm pretty new to the classic car scene. I've had this car for almost a year. It's ran and sounded beautiful thus far.
Yesterday I was cruising when I noticed a clinking sound. I know it's new because I can hear it over the could of the engine. It increase with idle speed and vice versa. Unknown history on this vehicle.
I will attach a video that I recorded I'm hopes of someone being able to help diagnose the sound. Thanks!!
Cam probably junk.He all, sorry for the delay. I was at a consecutive 120hr work week with a day or two in between. Finally have a few days off to figure this out.
So I went ahead and pulled all the lifters on the passenger side since that is where I was hearing the noise.
1 lifter had me concerned. All other lifters looked the same. So I'm going to replace this lifter. Should I just replace all of them? Will replacing just the one lifter be detrimental? Is this a sign of a deeper problem I need to address?
Thank you all for your time and patience
I have attached photos of said lifters.

I've had the car a little under a year. Don't know really any history on it. Unknown mile since it's non number matching. First Oil change was penzoil 10 30 second and third I used royal purpleA little history on your engine? Which cam? How many miles? What oil have you been using? The cam, more than likely, has been compromised by the look of those lifters.
