Hydraulic lifters will make noise when the oil pressure is not up to snuff or the passages are slightly clogged. The lifters will NOT cause any damage, so long as you don't get the rpms close to the red line while they are tapping.

If the noise really distracts you, you could try a bottle of AutoRx. Follow the instructions on the bottle. This will clean out any gunk.

If it still happens, it might be the oil pickup rings on the oil pan that are starting to disolve with age. It is a messy job, and a liquid gasket is used.
