there is a slight clicking sound that seems to be coming from the engine. It's especially noticeable when idleing.

Is this something I should be concerned with?

Hi there,

Any strange noise should be investigated, This may be a spark jumping form the high tension lead to earth, Common problem is spark plug tubes get oil in them and causes spark to short to earth, pull leads and check for oil, if so report and i will advise on next move.
