Take it to your nearest Subaru specialist and get them to have a look their is only so much that can be diagnosed by just reading words especially when it comes to engine noises I know personally they can sound a bit tappity on first start up especially when it's cold,ask yourself a few question does it perform the same does the noise go away when the car is warmed up or get louder,etc...but if it is really still concerning you,definitely get it looked at properly by a specialist.SJ.

Does it quite down when it's up to temp?It is definitely coming from the engine if the sound increase with revs,the fact that you are new to the car and don't know to much about them never try to play the guessing game as it could all end in tears get it to a Subaru specialist,what area do you live in?

Have a good listen when you next start it up,listen to see if the sound is the same even when engine temps are up,also check your oil level as well,if you think there is still noise drive with plenty of mechanical sympathy until you get to your specialist of choice,and don't miss that appointment on tuesday
