This could be several things but most likely it's lifter noise. Can you get your hands on a stethoscope?

As I was under the 190D hood a bit ago attempting, yes attempting, to check the transmission fluid - stupid thing that dipstick is - I heard a somewhat intermittent tapping acompanying the normal klatta. Would tick for maybe 10 seconds, then stop ticking, then start again after a couple seconds. Is this normal racket to be coming from the engine? Or is this indicitive of a problem?
