You could check for coil bind in the valve spring.

Coil bind is when the new cam has way more lift than the stock cam. It can compress the valve spring so far that it actually makes all the coils in the spring touch.

It would only make that noise if the spring was fully compressed. If only a few coils touch it wouldn't make any noise and probably wouldn't be a problem.
