Apparent valve ticking noise at startup S70 T5 S70 1998

My car has developed a tick when cold. It isn't as loud as some I have heard in videos online, but it is easily noticed in the cabin. Sounds like it is valve related.

After 5 minutes of driving, and return to idle and stopped, I can't hear it in the cabin.

A very quick search has yielded worn oil sump o-rings as one cause of a tick, but might the fact that the tick subsides after warmup indicate another cause?

Thanks in advance!
