Engine Ticking Sound (includes video)

Did an oil change back in October 2024 for winter storage and after starting it up I was not sure if my engine sounded normal.

I don't recall if it ever sounded like that in my 4 years of ownership but I also haven't had the hood open often with the engine running.

That is what mine sounds like (when it's actually running lol). I think it sounds pretty normal and from research I have heard that our cars tend to make a pretty loud ticking sound. Someone else feel free to jump in and tell me I'm wrong though. I wouldn't mind knowing how to make it tick a little less.
