T-belt idler pulley/tensioner question

Started up the car this morning to a fast clicking noise in the engine compartment. It's a 99' w/ about 95k miles.

I know that the t-belt was changed at 60k but I'm not sure if the tensioner was changed. Has anyone had a similar problem with their tensioner or similar noise? I don't know how else to better explain the noise.

my fuel pressure regulator ticks REALLY loud... it's the loudest noise emanating from the engine compartment, in fact.

this is a 3.0, though
