Tapping noise under low throttle

Whenever im driving regularly and shifting around 2k I can hear my engine making a slight tapping kinda sound. It doesnt do it when idling or at WOT. Engine only has 59k on it, runs very strong, but could I problems? Cant tell if my friends LT1 does it cause he has loudmouth and I cant hear anything besides exhaust.

Thanks alot...I dont necessarily mind the noise just concerned as my friends 5.0 made a similar noice and eventually blew up after he sold it a couple months later. Glad to see im not the only one and not to worry.
