Default Ticking noise on a 2007 GS 350

Hi guys, I am a new GS 350 owner, i recently acquired a 2007 with 110 miles, there is this ticking noise that comes on when the engine is warming, first its slow and then gets faster, here is a video, is this normal on this type of cars or I should be doing some valve adjusting or timing chain repalcement, or what is it??

Sounds 100% normal to me. The high pressure fuel pump is loud. You can buy covers to muffle the ticking. It made about a 30% difference to me. You'll get used to the sound after the while.

Anyone tried these covers on 06 GS300? Should be the same high pressure fuel pump right? Lexuspartsnow.com says "won't fit".
