Sounds like the carbon canister but to be sure, check your oil level, you can get a rattly sound from the VVT chain if the oil level dips a bit.
80% of your posts are total tripe, as they are mostly replies to sh1te posts created by the morons that, unfortunately this forum attracts.

Blocked pickup pipe causing low oil pressure?

Could be the carbon canister but sounds more like one of the coils arcing out on the rocker to me and as stated above is the warning to check low oil or is it oil pressure warning?
