Could be a bad lifter or bent push rod.

I can't imagine how hitting a pot hole would cause a lifter or push rod to start making noise. Maybe it's a coincidence, but did you look underneath to see if something else might be causing the sound? Maybe it's something like the inspection cover hitting the flex plate?
