Default "Ticking" Sound when i start up? (ES 300- 96)

Hey i recently bough t a 96 Es 300, and everytime i start it up, theres a ticking sound... even when i leave it running or idleing, it still continues to sound...also when i turn it off, for about 5 mins after, it still contine to make the same sound...
Any advice?, is it something i should be worried about or could it be that since it has 110k miles... its just wearing on the engine??
Thanks in advance for any help whatsoever that i can get...
Thanks

The ONLY thing I can think of is a shorted out relay.

Is the noise the same as when you turn on the blinker?
