Post 964 engine noise

When I drive my 92 cab 4 with the top down I hear a highpitch jingling/clinking/churping noise typically between 2k and 3k rpms. The harder I accelerate the less I notice it. Any ideas?

I just bought the car recently so I need to look when the last tuneup was done. Just today I ordered valve cover gaskets etc ... to do a tuneup. Is this a typical noise of valve that need adjusting in a Porsche?

Very hard to say over the internet based on a written explanation of a sound but it is where I would recomend you start.
