Default Engine "Clicking" & Shakey Idle

Hey guys/gals. Was driving a 95 camry wagon the other day and noticed a clicking sound coming from the engine. Does anyone know what that could be? I'm no engine tech but I do work on my motorcycle and clicking is never a good sign.

Also any thoughts on idling? Car shakes from time to time at idle.

Repairs? Possible cost? Help?

link to a sound clip of the engine:

Get an error message when clicking on the sound clip.

Did the car always shake at idle? What is the idle RPM when it shakes. Is the A/C on what it shake?

Use a section of hose as a stethoscope to narrow down location of the noise.
