Start up clatter can be a cuople of things, chain tensioners may be worn, the hydraulic lifters may be worn, the chain guides may be worn. Its pretty common in these motors. I just live with it.
Negative effect? Something is not quite perfect, but after you replace the tensioners, finding the problem can get pretty expensive.
