mine is clearly the exhaust (probable cat have not confirmed yet) I confirmed this by grabbing my tail pipe engine off and shacking things up. I heart my rattle so it must be exhaust. either cat or exhaust "hitting" something somewhere. |

Often times as the cat fails small parts of the honeycomb will travel back in the exhaust system collecting in the resonator and muffler. So the cat may have failed and you need to remove the rest of the system and dump out all the pieces.

This is off topic, but you've got something wrong there. Turned all the way to the stop should be 20° or so. |

On my 92 Metro, the sheet metal air dam in front of the engine has a broken mounting tab and it makes a rattling sound like you describe. |
