Default Ok I just had a clicking sound comming from mine bone stock engine.

Sounds like coins in the wasing machine but at at much faster rate but not as loud.

I know you might think its ping and I thought so too, but on a bone stock engine?

The sound comes right after the cold morning start, and fades after 10 sec.

Anybody have anyidea?

Default Lifters perhaps? Certainly not "pinging" or detonation.

What weight oil are you using?
