Werid Rattling

Weird engine rattling it happens when the car is in low RPM but to day I dropped it down to 2ed going 35 or so and the car was making this rattling all the way to 50 well its been there ever sense I bought the car, I know its coming out of the engine bay but have no idea what it is and I think its hurting my performance cause my car is sucking more as I hear this rattling.

What kind of rattle does it sound like, and does it vary with engine speed?

It sounds like if u where to take a bell apart and leave the thing that goes back and forth really fast and put a cup over it. That’s the best I can describe it, sorry!
