I would make darn sure it's not coming from an accessory (eg alternator, water pump, etc.). To be sure, pull the belt and run the engine briefly. I wouldn't be suprised if the noise didn't go away. I've never heard of a bent valve stem - the only way I could imagine that happening is with a broken timing chain. Do you have oil pressure?
Let us know what it turns out to be.
