Rattle under the hood?

somewhere under my hood...near the front near the intake, under some wires (which have random pieces of black tape and masking tape? wtf?) i hear a rattling noise. not sure if its new. but its kinda annoying. you can really only hear it if ur outside next to the car, but it sounds like something is rubbing. i have a 2.4.

any one else have something like this?

My car makes a wierd noise too. It sounds like chains dragging on the ground. Comes from the engine at 2000rpm-2300rpm and 3500-4000 and I have no idea what it is. And it doesn't do it all the time....? That like yours?
