A few days ago It started making a clicking sound. It seams to come from the drivers side front part of the engine. I did a oil change thinking that maybe low oil level was the reason but It did not solve the problem.

Maybe someone in this forum knows what it could be. Here its a video:

That sounds like a lifter making a noise.

You are right it's VVEL causing the noise. Look for TSB08-028B via http://infinitig37.com/Infiniti-G37-Tec ... itins.html and see if that helps
