yeah could be the exhaust or the manifold could just be your heat shield though have a look under neath see if you can see anything suspicious or any loose joints

Where are you hearing the rattle from, best thing to do is get somebody to rev the car while you listen around the car.
That way pin point where the noise is coming from.

have a look under and check the heat shield you should be able to see or feel if it is moving or coming slack
