Video of rattle (I'm not sure if it's easy to make out here) https://i.imgur.com/DyzUZhU.mp4



What you're looking at is a ball joint, not a bushing. That split is in the boot which keeps grease in and dust out. It is definitely NOT the source of your "rattle". But it should be changed soon.

The video? Yeah.... I can't hear it..... and I've said it before: on a video, everything sounds like a rod-knock.
