Sorry for late update...
I've decided not to disassemble what I dodn't touch previously; I've just opened the cylinder head cover yet again, measured valve clearances again, put everything back together, started the engine and... No ticking!
My optimism little bit lowered when I went for ride, as there was subtle ticking during agressive acceleration, and nane otherwise. I still don't understand what is it, but since it became subtle and rare, I decided it shouldn't be anything dangerous. Maybe in 12k, when it will be time for next clearance check, I'll open the PAIR valves compartments for check.
Now feel much more confident in doing mechanical jobs.
