Default Ticking/knocking sound

My '96 xj has developed a new noise within the last two weeks. It's a somewhat loud/annoying noise seeming to be coming from the motor. My oil pressure hasn't been affected nor has the motors performance which leads me away from it being a rod knock. So I pulled the valve cover and all of the lifters seem to be functioning. Just looking for other ideas of things to check.

My exhaust manifold is cracked but has been cracked for some time now. It's a little louder when accelerating and more repetitive
