Blower motor related obviously. I'd check the fan for the motor, may have cracked on you and you hear it ticking as it spins. Can't be much else...

Could be a leaf. Or twig. It's easy to take out the blower motor case and clean it out. Then, as ss93cobra mentioned, hook it to 12V and see if it still ticks.
