Replace the 3 hydraulic tensioners and drive it.
My startup rattle was the WP scraping on the engine block, and the alternator bearing. Both made start up noise until warmed up in a few seconds.
I guess mine wasn't seconds from exploding....glad I didn't get an over the phone diagnosis. Use your head. Check the obvious. Start it without the belt. Same noise?
