If it is lifter or timing chain noise loud enough to hear from inside the cabin, I would expect it to be even louder under the bonnet. If you can only hear it in the cabin, I agree with Bill and pursang that it's almost certainly the fuel pressure regulator. The noise is conducted from the fuel pipe to the body of the car which is why it appears so loud from inside the car.
Had the same on my '90 CD 2.3T. I'm told it isn't a problem on 2.0 engines, for some reason.
