always has that in my 240 when i had it, i tore it down but never could find what it was, ive heard most other 240's do it as well.

it never caused a problem in my case but every car is different.

If it's at the front of the valve cover like it was w/my stock motor, you should try replacing the lifters and the valve springs. It worked for me. Too many high revs will weaken the valve-train. Causing a kind of clacking noise. Maybe this will help.
