Yes, it's a manual. Mine sounds like it is coming from the bottom of the driver side. I have even wondered if there is a corner of a thin heat shield tapping something but haven't had a chance to put it on a lift and check it out.

Yes! very much like a gas grille ignitor. I have noticed it since before the first oil change. I got my oil changed at 5000 and I am at 7300 and I feel like it has gotten worse since then, louder and more often. It never stops doing it.
