I'm hearing a rattling sound from my pulley belt side of the engine. Any ideas will be much appreciated

I'd guess at a worn belt tensioner or something like the alternator bearings. Does the noise change when you turn the air-conditioning on/off or rev the engine?

Worn pulleys makw a squeeling noise usually not a rattle. Could be the vvti death rattle known to affect the 2grfe. Big expensive cost pretty much and engine out job.

Is it a constant rattling sound or just for a short time on a cold start ?

I recently had some strange noises coming from the same area. Turns out was the water pump. My engine has 220000km on it.
