tick tick tick

So when I bought my truck it has a 351 w and
when at idle it has a tick on the drivers side.
my coworker says its normal but when you rev it
the tick goes away . What do you guys think ?

Thankyou for any help.

Lifter is sticky or clogged and not pumping up. Put some Rislone in it, and drive it for a few weeks, it will most likely go away.
