Ticking sound after timing belt

So a few months ago I had a timing belt job done. AND ever since I've had a ticking sound that only goes away on decel.

I found my exhaust manifold to head gasket had a hole so I replaced that this weekend thinking that was the cause of the ticking noise. As it got louder the worse the gasket leak got.

Went from a 4 layer to a full copper embossed gasket. But the ticking sound is still there.

Any ideas?

I don't see any wear on any of the belts.

Things replaced at time of timing belt:
Water pump
Oil filter housing
Oil pan
Tensioner
Pulleys
Belts
Removed the a/c tensioner (this is the only thing we didn't put back on after the timing belt)

I have a video but can't upload it here. There is no smoke and the car doesn't seem down on power at all.
