I am beginning to think the lifters are the cause of the noise. Following Big Nasty's advice I put a quart of ATF in the engine and have driven a couple tanks on it as such, The motor is now quieter (still a bit of rattle) and alot more friendly when cold and at low RPMs.

Thank you all for the great input!
