I can confirm that replacing the headers and the front pipe with pipe-only component often result in metallic vibration.
This can be cause both by heatshield rattle but it's often caused by the harmonic vibration of the pipes themselves.
Basically any long section of pipe with this engine cause the metallic rasp on liftoff and at certain rpm.
