Default Engine noise

I have a 94 f2 I got last year and developed an engine after a few months. Sounds like a valve tapping as if they were oil starved. But the noise is only present on hot start ups and only last about 30 seconds n then goes away n sounds good. If I shut it off hot n re start immediately no Noise but if it sits for about 5 minutes or so n I re start the noise will be there. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Sounds like CCT related rattle. Since the factory CCT has its tension bolstered by oil pressure, it makes sense that on startup it takes a bit before the pressure is built up inside the CCT, and after engine shutoff, some of the oil inside drains back out.
