To me it sounds like the ticking more has to do with the pressure, i just dealt with similar pressure issues and found a spun main. good cold pressure, driving hot was fair but hot idle was around 10-15.

Hopefully not, but good luck
Already had him change the oil (no metal found in oil during drain or inside cut-open filter).

Ticking is there even with 50psi cold pressure...once again only at 1800-1900 rpm. Sounds completely normal at idle and any RPM range that is not 1800-1900 rpm.

Maybe it isn't the engine? Could it be tranny-related?
