I'm surprised nobody else has said this (probably because it wasn't exactly your question), But removal of the timing chain guides can eliminate that "rattling in a can" noise that you're experiencing. Nissan has even regarded them as unnecessary.

Since you're new, here's a link to removing the guides.
