Could be tensioners cracking, or one maybe loose. Better do more research and get someones head under the hood!

It's most likely the hydraulic lifters. Over time the oil leaves deposits on lifter surfaces and it make them gummy. Sinthetic, mineral and additive oils will all do it. Short runs don't help either. Warm the oil, drain it, fill with flushing oil. Run it as per the flushing oil instructions, drain it, change the oil filter, refill with a quality oil that won't emulsify on short runs, and change it at regular intervals.

What would a tapping sound from the engine of 1988 Mazda 626 turbo that has been sitting for 2 months mean?

It COULD be caused from the lifters bleeding down after the enginge has set for 2 months. Lifters make a tapping type of sound. Oil has a tendency to drain away from parts after sitting for a while.. It may even be your bearings were making noise. Bearing make a knocking..hard rapping type of sound. If the noise went away after a short time, it ain't no biggie. If it still makes noise you may want to have a tech inspect it.
