Agreed, sounds normal.

I reckon it's just the valve lifters indicating that they have some clearance - which is a good thing.

Back in the day, with solid lifters, if you didn't have that sound after you adjusted the valves, it usually meant that they were adjusted to tight and one could expect some burnt valves on down the road.
