Engine Mechanical problem
1994 Toyota 4Runner 6 cyl Four Wheel Drive Automatic 175k miles

Im getting a rapped ticking noise from above the #4 cylinder when i put the stethoscope to the valve cover i think it might be a rocker, but im not 100% and would like a second opinion before i start ripping it apart. Is there any thoughts on this?

Could be a lifter/s that needs shimming with the correct disc.
