ticking noise

Hello,

About 2 days AFO I got tomie headers installed on my Nissan 350gt and drive the car home, after 2 days I started the car and I could hear slight ticking noise , is it a leakage from the headers or a bad gasket maybe?? I never had this noise before the headers ...please help. I have made a video of the ticking sound: http://youtu.be/YeMI9UPxOaY

Does the ticking noise go away eventually? I am thinking the noise might be coming from the heat produced by the headers as they expand when hot or contract during cooling after shut down. Were there any heat shields removed and not installed when they installed the new headers? Or maybe the clearance between the headers and heat shields and surrounding structure is not sufficient.

No, it's most likely a leak like you said before.

I admit, I did not look or listened to the video before submitting my comment, after reviewing the video, I would agree that the noise is most likely related with a leak.
