Default noise in 90 jetta

I have a noise ( clicking ) in 1990 jetta it sounds like its coming
from around the transaxle.
It doesn't sound like a valve or piston & I don't think its coming
from heat shield
It doesn't start till the car is running for a while.
1 of the motor mounts is getting bad as motor moves a little when
shifting between park ,drive & reverse .
TIA
Geoff

Without hearing it, I would guess it may be a heat shield.

As for the motor mount, I strongly suggest you get it fixed As Soon As
Possible as it may well end up damaging other parts and running up the
repair cost a great deal.
