lt1 noise with video My lt1 has always had a noise to it which I originally thought was a lifter. Here lately, it has became louder. I used a stethoscope and found that the tick seems to be coming from the number 4 cylinder. I pulled the valve cover off and checked the rockers and a few of them were lose. I pulled the #4 pushrod and rolled it on the table and it seemed straight. I'm not sure if this is a sufficient test? I am attaching a video to see if anyone on this site may be able to point me in the right direction for diagnosis. Thanks for any help.
The car is a 94 automatic z28 with 260,000 miles on it.

That's what I was afraid of. It's had the noise for about 10,000 miles but it just recently got louder. The camera makes it seem much louder than it really is but i'm still going to play it safe and not drive it.
