It's possible that the clicking noise is coming from a loose or damaged engine belt. I would suggest getting it checked by a mechanic as soon as possible to prevent any further damage. Sometimes the belt just needs to be tightened, but if it's damaged, it will need to be replaced.

Another potential cause could be a problem with the engine's valves. If they are not opening and closing properly, it can create a ticking or clicking noise. I would recommend taking your car to a mechanic for a diagnostic test to determine the exact issue.

Sometimes, a clicking noise from the engine can be caused by low oil levels. Check your oil level and top off if necessary. If the noise persists, it's best to have a mechanic take a look to make sure there are no underlying issues.
