That is the EVAP Purge Valve; it's supposed to click. Drive more, worry less.

Activated Charcoal Canister.

It cycles on and off, so the valve is not always opening and closing. When it does begin it's cycle, it does click audibly, with the hood raised.

Perfectly normal though.

Fuel EVAP valve. It is supposed to click. If it doesn't click it is clogged/broken.
