Default Loud engine ticking

My car was in a accident where it hit a curbing. Most of the damage was suspension oriented. Picked up the car today and now I have a very loud ticking sound coming from the engine compartment. Any ideas of what it could be?

Could be as simple as the belt tensioner.

It doesnt sound like its coming from there. Its definetly coming from the Heads/Intake manifold. and just behind the front wheels, but I cant tell under which wheel is worse
