I would still advise getting the belt done. If the belt goes your looking at a large repair bill. The timing chain tensioners are known to leak as well on V6 motors, we replace a lot of them with timing belts as well.

"Rattle" could possibly be something inside the belt area, but being a V6 I'd lean more towards piston slap. That is quite common on Honda V6 motors, we have done a few under warranty for excessive slap.
