Re: ticking
it could be a couple extra things such as a loose or too tight rocker, or it could be a stuck valve, or a loose timing chain.

Re: ticking
You said your dad said it was the distributor... mine does the same thing at idle when its in drive. Its somewhat common. If its not a lifter tick (look into that) or a manifold tick then don't worry about it.

a common problem is a broken exhaust manifold bolt or a cracked exhaust manifold
