Test your theory by removing the A/C belt.

Really tinny rattling sounds could be the heat shields on the exhaust parts under the center of the car.

Do you have any type of vibration when idle, I think I may be right there with you in the problem if you do. Sometimes its louder than other timesandveryrarely its not there at all.
