As far as rod bearings and piston slap, I doubt you have either of those as a problem unless the oil has been severely neglected or the mileage is much higher that you think.

Some engines have a little piston slap when they are cold but it goes away when they warm up. Nothing to worry about.

A rod knock is a very "heavy sound" like banging a hammer against the engine.
