After more investigation, I'm not even sure the sound I'm hearing is chain rattle from a bad tensioner. Today I got underneath the car and put a stethoscope on the IMS/crank tensioner and had someone start the car when it was dead cold and I couldn't hear anything abnormal from the tensioner. I'll try the bank1-3 tensioner tommorrow. Could just be lifter/starter rattle.
