Motor has 160,000 miles on it and ticking has become more pronounced in recent months. I changed the oil a little early to see if it was dirty but alas the tick still remains after adding 10w-30 Castrol full synthetic oil. This ticking only occurs when the engine is warm. During cold starts the engine sounds fine. No performance issues or engine operation problems have occurred, only the noise.
I don't know if this is a noise I should be concerned of or not. Sounds like a noisy lifter but I am not sure, definitely on top of the engine and not related to the common exhaust manifold bolts breaking and rattling around.
Heres the video:

The sound is more pronounced in the second section of the video
