Default gs300 engine sounds, ticks and clicks help

I have a 99 gs300

I get a loud ticking and buzzing sound in idle and during driving.

also a constant clicking noise as I accelerate.

I know its not a knocking noise.

I can try to get a video up sometime to show whats happening.

Been trying to look for it online and havent found much.

What are some things I can try or check.

Thanks

Could be the valvetrain needs a cleaning. Also could be injectors. Was it on a cold start or all the time when driving. I feel you on new noises. As weather gets colder cars start making new wierd noises
