maybe some engine honey will work?
a little more details on your car such as mileage the type and viscosity of oil would be helpful.

my car used to tick at hot/warm restart, its (the tick) usually associated with oil starvation on the track. adding a half quart seems to quite things down and normally a if its the guides its not considered terminal.
since yours does it while moving/accelerating i would check the level and viscosity first, easier and cheaper then a tear down.
