Have a look under bonnet and follow heater pipes to where they go through the bulkhead,
Just before this is a round black cylinder which cuts off hot water flow when aircon is on,it has a small vacuum pipe into top,usually this rubs through insulation and rattles against side of bulkhead,
Easily fixed by sliding heater pipes towards nearside where they are clipped into rear of airbox.

Or as ford did, zip tie the pipes together (the previous flywheel conversion they did to try to stop rattle cost the lease co 1200 lol... ziptie was free heheeh)
