Default '11 LS460 Start Up Rattle

I get this noise, AT TIMES, on cold starts which sounds similar to a knock. It lasts for maybe a couple of seconds at most. It's not the FI ticking that is generally always present. Anyone experienced this? I see where other models (engines) have reported start up noise but nothing on the 460.

It could be a number of things but the most common is a bad belt tensioner.
