I'm not sure if you have hydraulic valve adjustment on it or not - if so then there's a chance one or more are not taking up the slack until the car is warm.
That's probably the nicer alternative. It also could be a loose conrod, which will eventually mean a strip down of the motor. [V]. Assume it's alternative #1 for now.
