2020 5.0. Trucks been great - always had the type writer noise, but it's seems it has been getting louder. Normal maintenance except for phaser replacement a few thousand miles back. 117K miles. Normal tick or something else?
My truck knocks like that sometimes, as long as it goes away when you hit the throttle your good

The noise level you hear is normal for all that is going on in the engine.
4 cams, 4 drive chains, 32 valves and High-Pressure Fuel Pump with a Tick of its own added to the noise level, located outside on the driver side Valve Cover.
The HP pump is driven off a cam lobe.
The engine is a repurposed high performance Mustang Engine with a changeover to Map control and a longer Intake Runners for more low end torque.
If you want to quiet it down a noticeable amount , put MOLY MO S2 additive in the oil and also begin to reduce oil consumption given some time to work.
Good luck.
