Got a windage tray? Could it be hitting a rod bolt?
Maybe a TC bolt backed out a bit and is just kissing the block.
You absolutely sure it's valve train related? Have you pulled the valve cover and listened to each rocker with a stethoscope to narrow it down?
They say there are no such thing as a stupid question. They say there is always the exception that proves the rule. Don't be the exception.

I ain't run into this myself but the Moparters here say that a header leak can sound just amazingly similar. Any chance it could be pin/lock related? I would do what Supercuda said & breakout the stethoscope. Holler how it turns out. EDIT always done it since breakin/new

I ain't run into this myself but the Moparters here say that a header leak can sound just amazingly similar... I can confirm that...had that exact situation once, I was using the SB headers which have a short run of one of the primary tubes slide into the remaining tube...eventually, somehow, I got a leak there...no crack, just corrosion I suppose (car was used during Canuck winters, lots of road wear)...I took me some time to figure that one out. Also had the TC issue as well. One of the bolts backed out enough to just nick, we are talking barely a touch, the dustshield cover...once I pulled the inspection cover and had a look at all the bolts it was easy to tell though.
