Default 2.5 v6 noisy tappet

Hi everyone,
Recently I noticed my 75 on cold starts has a noisy tappet it doesn't always happen and it usually goes away after a few seconds but I was wondering if there is any treatment for it. The car runs on 5w30 castrol fully synthetic additionally I've noticed some sludge on the oil cap I don't know if this could be related it doesn't use any coolant or anything my rover expert said not to worry about it it's because the car is used on short journeys only
Reagrds,
Thanos
