Default Erratic ticking sound

It's really erratic, and only hear it at idle, seems like its coming from down by the crank. I pulled the timing belt cover off recently when I had to replace my water outlet, took it off again tonight, didn't hear it with it off, but the cover back on, and it's back, the only thing I can guess is that the mark on the crank is hitting the cover, is there anything I can do about that?
