pdrayton, I'd bet it's the injector. Sometimes they need some time to settle in or clean out the combustion chambers if the previous injectors were spraying poorly. You can try cracking each injector line to see if the noise goes away. If it does, then it's a combustion knock instead of a mechanical one. Or you can try running the engine on Diesel Purge which has extremely high cetane and it will at least temporarily quiet down any combustion knocks.
