Cool Rattling noise

whats up everyone, i have a quick question regarding my 2000 S. Any help would be appreciated. Ok, I have 107,000 miles(i know thats a lot, but who can resist driving this machine?), and it seem to have started making a rattling noise during start up in the mornings. Sounds like something is rolling around or has dropped some change. The sound seems to come from the front left of the engine. It is not rev sensitive, last on 3-5 seconds and it goes away when warmed up. I always keep the oil topped of too. Is it the timing chain or possibly heat shield rattle? What exactly is heat shield rattle?
