I had the same problem with my 560. I replaced the rocker and lifter. The problem was that the lifter was bleeding down, and the rocker was slapping the camshaft. Lucky for me, the cam was okay. I went to BAP/GEON, and bought the lifter and rocker. The lifter was about $26, and the rocker ws $14. Installation is very easy if you have the valve spring compressor.
