Question HEARING A NOISE

Hey new here. Wasn't sure where to post this so here it goes. Got an 1988 Ranger that has recently started making a noise.Light ticking sound
Sound like low COMPRESSOR noise
No loss of power
Noise coming from cylinder 1(assuming)
Not burning oil
Not running rich
Idle smooth
Ranger 2.3 L cranked easy no smoke
