it is most likely your heat shield
if so, any shop can fix it for you.

i had this b3fore, and thought it was the heat shield. so i cut the shield off, but it was the cat converter. i'm glad my cat still had warranty for a 2003 vehicle

well.. if you havent already gone to a place, just come to my work.
budget brake and muff diving ....
If its just the heatshield we can rip it off easily.. but try to explain the sound youre hearing..ranther than .. ling ling.... lol!
If its a ting ting...ahaha.. youre looking at the heat sheild or your engine is pinging. Does it do it when youre going say.. up a hill or the car is under a bit more stress?
lemme know!
( oh and if your ein the abbotsford area im at this budget  )

damn it your so far..... lazybum ... the best way i can describe is ling ling ling...its does tend make the sound when i acelecrate at about 0-2500 rpm and then after its gone. I go up a hill and it does that more so i have no clue...maybe i m gona record it n let you guys hear it in a couple of days. Also when i start my car it fine and when i rev it high it doesnt make the rattle sound at all.

I had something very similar before. It only rattled at about 1.5k-2k rpm for me.
It ended up being a bolt not holding the top half of the heat shield with the bottom half properly.

If you're looking for recommendations for a place to fix it you should probably state where you live.

This is prrobobly REALLY late. BUT
The ling ling ling sound.. are you sure its not a pinging sound?
It happens usually when the vehicle is under some stress? for example, a hill.
It could be an engine ping. Unless it was your cat or just a heat sheild. Lemme know if youve figured it out!

if you still hear it when u wiggle it on jackstands, adjust the hangers yourself. Or get new and polyurethane hangers.
If it only happens when you drive, check the front portion of the catback, it's probably the vibration from the engine.

i get a lot of ling ling lings, ping ping pings and ting ting tings at work. it's always either the heat shield and the clamp rings rusted loose(cut off rusted one and put new clamp), or the rings around the ends of the flex pipe(cut them off), mostly 03-06 altima's.
