I haven't really looked much into that clattering but mine has made the same noise for quite some time. I always thought it was a rod knock some people think it is valvetrain noise, like I said I haven't paid much attention to it. I'm not sure about that ringing though.
I got $$$$ on the rockers for the chatter noise when the throttle is let up. That "whine" noise I hear sounds like a belt to tight or PS pump. Rod knock gets louder under load. Maybe piston slap, this isn't uncommon on these motors. But I can definitely hear valve train noise.
