Default engine tick

ok so they say when it rains it pours i replace the transmission to the tune of $1,300 dollars and find out after that it was only the speed sensor for $150 dollars so i fix that and as im driving home from the garage i used i get this ticking in the engine so i get home and do an oil change figured it needed one but the tick hasn't gone away wondering if its a oil sending unit failure or am i going to have to shell out for a new motor now

btw: vechile is 1994 jimmy with the vortec 4.3L (w) code motor with 120k miles

I'd bet money that the shop forgot to tighten one of the flex plate to torque converter bolts.
