Default XF SV8 Rattle

Hi all! Just need a bit of advice, the car has got a rattle on idle and startup coming from what sounds like the top rear of the engine. There’s no rough idle or power decrease and it still drives very smoothly just wondering if anyone had an idea of what might be causing this? I heard that the timing chain is pretty solid on the later models of the 4.2 but could it be the pretensioner or VVT? Thanks
