Default Ticking noise

Just went for a nice drive and got on it quite a bit. got home and heard a slight ticking noise. you can hear it in this vid. power steering fluid is a bit low (after removing the rack to install a new balancer) form the hot line when car was hot. can this be the noise? oil pressure at idle is 35


any ideas? engine was hot when the vid was taken
