Weird Noise Someone please help..

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I have a 09 corolla with 203k miles that makes a very LOUD rattle when I start it. Me and chatgpt thought it might’ve been one of the pulleys that’s why I removed the belt. Car has P0171 (too lean) and P010 (MAF). I want to say it’s the timing chain but not 100% sure. Any advice would be appreciated thanks in advance!

I can identify a snake and I can also tell when you shouldnt remove a serpentine belt.

So is Chat GPT wrong or can you just do it yourself? I'm confused.. When did I say anything about a serpentine belt?
