Unhappy Valve tap

Guys have a question.

Brought my car to a local shop. Everything running fine, just getting new rubber for the rear. When I picked the car up and drove it home I could hear (over the pipes) what sounded like valve tap. Oil is full and new.

This is a new car for me and the valve system is a Jessel. I am not familar with them but understand they are very good and solid. The mechanic is going to pick the car up on Monday with his flatbed just to make sure nothing is seriously wrong. He thinks it may just be an adjustment. Anyone had this kind of problem before. could they losen or go out of adjustment like that?

Again, car went in good came out tapping.
