If it were me, I wouldn't worry about it.
  • You are checking the oil and it didn't get more than 1 liter low.
  • The oil-pressure light never came on
  • You don't see any performance changes
So chalk it up to a slightly noisy valve train and hit the road to enjoy yourself.

Car engines make noises. Some make more noises than others, but that doesn't mean
they are about to fail.
