just wondering about this rattling, im llike 90% sure its the timing chain, the rattling isnt that bad. u only notice it a little bit when the engine is in idle. what kind of potential problems if any can i face with this ?

sounds like the top guide for the upper chain-very common-the solution is to remove that guide(it's not even installed on later engines so don't be concerned)
