IMO, it could be a big problem if the noise does not go away one morning. My truck's lifters leak down and rattle on start up, but they immediately pump up and the sound goes away. Does not require waiting for the motor to warm up.

I would approach with caution unless you are prepared to tear the motor down. JMO
