need help with 6.8 v10

Hello, I have a 2000 f250 sd 6.8 v10 and about 2 months a noticed a small tick. Now the tick got louder. It sounds like its coming from the front of the engine right by the oil pan. It goes away when I step on the gas.
The oil pressure is fine. it has alot of power and runs fine otherwise.

Any help will be greatl appreciated.
thanks

Check manifold studs first if they're not broken for exhaust leaking.
