If it's a tapping noise you have - it's the rockers (don't panic!!!).
The noise was lower down than the head, it sounded like the small end had gone and the piston was banging about loose in the cylinder. It was worse when revved.
I've already re-built the engine with another piston and cylinder that I had lying about (like you do). I've just got to put it back in (when I have a spare couple of hours).
