help again! !

I swear I think I got the worst luck. I saved up and rebuilt my 360 into a 390 and couldn't wait to get it in. Well it's been in for some months now and today I noticed a flutter under the left side valve cover. I can feel it and hear it. I thought I had an exhaust leak due to new headers but I think it might be somthin else. Like I said I can put my had on the valve cover and feel the "flutter click" is how I would describe it. Please can anyone give me some insight on what the damage is????

We can't tell until you take it apart and see what's going on.

Take the valve cover off, and see what's going on first.
