Rattling is not good could be many things most are costly. I would check the heads for broken springs on the valves that would cause them to be hit each cylinder rotation. Next the heads need to be removed and the valves them selves need to be checked to be sure they are intact. hopefully the heads are the problem if it is the lower end is a lot more bucks. You didn't say how it was running when it started making noise. Is there blow by now ? Need more info.
