There's a well known rattle when the engine is cold at around 3000-3500 rpm, goes away when fully warmed. There was also talk of a bolt that works it's way out from the heat shield on the exhaust manifold itself (top right bolt). I had a rattle in the center heat shield over the center muffler- a pebble got thrown up there and was trapped between the body and the shield. Knocked it out with a scerewdriver, rattle gone.
