The cam can be the problem but it's just an idea
Yes the ticking is the m/c solenoid, if it's far from 30 degrees it stops moving and no ticking can be heard.
The ECM only gives a rich or lean code if it's so far from perfect that the engine want to stop. If perfect is 14:1 A/F then mine gave a code below 4:1.
About the odd notice, I would also think it's running rich but it should be doing it again and again. I always use the vacuum port from the EGR to connect the vacuumgauge to
