i had that on mine thought the same that it was the heat shield i took it to a mechanic and he said it was the water pump so i had that replaced along with new timing belt but then turned out it was the big end bearings had gone. hopefully you wont have this problem but i would take it to a mechanic asap just in case.

just had mine taken off drive yesterday, massive problems with the water pump on sports had a new timing belt and pump would advise not driving it as if timing belt falls off that will send a whole lot of pistons into orbit and probaly damage the head so bassically a new engine as happened to my mate and excuss for getting an XE though

i had the same problem only mine rattled at about 3000rpm. some baffles in the middle box had become un welded and rattled about.
