99 classic with 60k on the clock, is making a quiet tapping noise from the engine! It could be a few things I guess but what's the most common faults please anyone?

Mine has started making a slimier noise and it's coming from the boost solenoid. Have you tried to listen with the bonnet up to see if you can work out roughly where it could be coming from.

I haven't noticed it really before, sounds like it comes from the sides, unless that's my brain telling me it's coming from either side knowing that it's a flat four.
