Noise at start up

Hi everyone,
My 02 Monty has developed a noise, almost like a rattling noise at start up when engine it is cold. I was told that this is not something that may hurt the performance, but it bugs me!!!
If I start the vehicle after sitting for a while will have this noise. In order to avoid it quickly, I have to shut down the engine and start it again. Sometimes it takes up to 3 times to have it gone away.
I suspect to have an issue with my starter??? since everything seems to be fine and without issues.
I went over and done a complete tune up and timing on it. It has less than 90k on it.
As I want to keep the vehicle, I would like to get this fixed and take it out of my mind.

Any help and ideas will be greatly appreciated!!!
