Cambelts don't rattle but one of the pulleys or the tensioner could be. You need an ear from somebody who's more familier with the V6's.

remove icv and clean with carb cleaner repeat until it settles down. Change oil, and again after 2 or 3k miles if its a lifter, may also be exhaust manifold gasket. But check the belt reguardless.
