if this ticking is only after the cars been off for a while, then you start it up and hear a loud ticking, that goes away with in 2 minutes or less. its a lifter. and it sadly, normal and GM says its fine. change your oil see if it stops doing it.
if i let my oil change go more then 4,000 miles i get the lifter tick, change the oil, and it stops.

Change your oil and check to see if it is sparkly.

You could just replace your lifters since you have it all torn down anyway.

it moves back and forth and side to side a little bit

then thats probably your tick...you can either live with itlike me, remove the sprocket, remove the shaft and plug the oil holes or have the bearings replaced... the last 2 require the engine to be out of the car
