Exhaust heat shield rattling? I had to remove most of mine that were rusting off.

It's hard to diagnose a rattle that one can't hear. Certainly, exhaust shields as mentioned, are a good possibility. Badly worn upper timing chain tensioner faces are another possibility. A clip of the noise might be helpful.
