Can anyone ID this sound from engine bay

Engine is warm after 15 min drive.

Every year when I take it out I get freaked out by the coyote tick. Is this just the famous type writer tick, or just normal DI injectors?

2018 pp1 5.0 21k miles.

Ran 5w-20 all its life, manual says can run 5w-30 if tracking. I put so few miles on it each year 2-3k I just put 5w-30 right away this time.

I've had this sound since my first oil change and im at 35k now. Its never been an issue and is very common and 85% of these engines have a very similar sound.

thanks, have a hard time figuring out if it’s the coyote tick or the DI engine. Always on my mind lol.
