One additional source for the "ticking" is the fuel injectors. They will make significantly more noise when it is cold but it is totally normal.

Now that the weather is getting colder my injectors tick loudly for about 10 seconds then return to normal light ticking.

You might try a mechanic's stethoscope on the injectors to pinpoint the source...
