Default lifter tick?
needs some input on what you guys think this noise is, sounds like a ticking lifter coming from cylinder 5 or 7.

I've seen LS7 lifters flat spot on the roller and cause problems. I've only seen it with big cams and a lot of spring pressure.

I agree. LS7's are a good lifter. Did you pull the valve cover off and check the rockers yet?
