why dont you rev it up and see if it goes away.
Lift the valve cover and inspect, if it bugs you enough then lift the cylinder head and inspect .. that is if you can do it yourself ( I remember you went to Honda for a valve adjustment, maybe they messed up. )

It is a high pitched noise? or a low pitched noise? It may have been the video, but to me it sounded like it was coming from the bottom of the block.

Have you checked your LMA (Lost Motion Assembly)? Bad LMA's makes your engine tick.

Rebuild gone wrong.
Who rebuilt it ? .. Do they have experience, or was it a back-yard deal ?
At this point it could be either the head or the block, or a combination of both.
Take it to someone who knows how to diagnose problems like these, then go from there. You can not diagnose something like this over the internet without actual physical inspection.

If its a bad valve, or a bad seal on the valve, it would show up when doing a wet/dry compression test, and a leak down test. If you havent done those tests yet, do them, instead of just guessing, and get back to us with numbers.
