Default TB is done, questions regards a click noise coming from driver side when rotate the engine by hand

So I have completed the timing belt, and all the seals.
I did few rotations by hand to makesure sounds good.
The only thing that worry me is a "click" sound coming every few rotations I do.
I can hear from driver side near the top where the adjuster is located, I recall it first time I did it before TB and seals, but totally forgot, until almost everything is done.
I opened the oil cap and listened to noise, and I can hear a suction and then this "click" sound comes up.. is this normal .. or I have to get dirty again...

Default Probably cam shaft jumping foward when pushed by the valve springs. No oil pressure to take...

...up the slack in the cam chain.
