Can you by just replacement glass,lens, and insides for original headlights on the 8n? What would be the cause of a ticking sound coming from near the head, right under the spark plug?

A fairly loud "tick-tick-tick-tick" that keeps time with the exhaust pulses and is loudest at the cylinder head might well be a loose sleeve moving with the piston. Each time the piston rises, the sleeve bangs against the cylinder head. Each time the piston falls, the sleeve bottoms against the block.

Valve noise tends to be in the tappet area behind the side cover of the block. It isn't as loud as what you get with a loose sleeve. It also runs at half the engine speed, because of the cam gearing.

I don't know about the lite but right under the spark plugs is where the valves are. Maybe you'rs need adjusting.
