Here's a possibility, in case you haven't fixed it yet. I have the VG30DE in my 90 Z, and had a tapping sound up front, driver's side. It turned out to be a weak VTC spring (inside the intake cam sprocket on the driver's side in my car). I got a new spring and O-ring seal for $4 from the dealer and changed them in half an hour and no more noise. That may be the case in your car.
