Hi, Im a noob and I need some help with my 22re. Any advice would be appreciated. Here's the story.

I picked up an 85 4runner with 81k original that had been sitting for at least 10 years for no apparent reason. I had to replace the fuel pump and battery and it started right up. It ran great, incredibly quiet and smooth. Got it home and figured she needed some oil from this decade. I have done many oil changes and I am quite sure I did everything correct. There was plenty of oil in it when I started up but something stuck. I believe it was a valve. It ran but with a loud solid tapping from the top end. I got some advice and was told that my options were to pull the head and see what was going on or just drive it and see if it loosens up. I drove it for a while and it seemed to be getting better, but I started to develop some chatter. Took it out on a long wheeling trip and the valve loosened up on the highway. Just had chatter after that and it had a little miss. Got the valves proffesionaly adjusted and chatter is gone and truck runs smooth but have a loud tap from the bottom of the valve cover on the intake side. The truck runs very well now but the tapping is very loud. Bent valve? If so what are my options?
