Engine tapping noise

Hi, I decided to post on here about my engine problems with my Boxster. full disclosure I bought the car at 17 (I'm 19 now) so money is tight to repair it. a few months ago my car began having oil pressure issues which were solved with an oil change (no glitter in the oil) and a new filter. a week after this however due to a lose connecter by the ignition switch. upon starting it back up it began making a knocking/ tapping sound from the engine which increases with the rpms. the car has high miles 160k but has a mountain of service records dating back to when it was new with all the typical Boxster issues like the ims, water pump and rms all being done. The car has sat ever since because of college but I'm ready to start getting into the issues. any help would be a life saver
