If it continues to get worse is it a problem that needs to be addressed and if so how. Feels good to get closer to the answer but still some unknowns remain.

Did he expound on that .... ??

If it does have something to do with the valves, yes, it should be taken care of.

What should be done .. ?? That would depend on what's wrong.

Most likely the head on that side would have to be taken off and the valve train inspected.

If I were you, I'd still check for something rattling, before I tore into the engine.
