2.7 986, ticking noise recently developed, - video included

Hi all, my boxster suddenly developed this ticking noise, it appears to be coming from the RHS of the engine, having difficulty diagnosing and would appreciate any suggestions or advice before taking it off to a porsche specialist.
I have (wishful thinking) checked the tightness of the spark plugs on the RHS after seeing a few reports mention this, however I am led to believe it is likely a stuck or collapsed hydraulic lifter.
I would appreciate any guidance here, many thanks.
