Strange rattle from exhaust, but no obvious sign of corrosin or blown gaskets?

Have your camshaft oil feeder checked. It may be blocked causing the cams to squeak due to poor lubrication.
I hope you got that problem sorted. It's true what the other poster says, in that if it is your camshaft creating the noise, you need to act on it quickly to avoid further (very damaging) wear. Tell us how you got on when you get the problem fixed.
