Okay cool, so perhaps use a shim from my other engine?

 

Yes just select a shim that is suitable. 

Does it start ok? I find it strange that all of a sudden one valve has no clearance. As I said, worn valve or valve seat.

Hope the piston isn't touching the valve...hence what the noise might be.

So had a good look today, swapped some shims about etc. The other shims I had also provided no clearence, the sound changed with different shims I believe this is where the sound is coming from. Does anyone know of a good place I could find some shims for sale?
