Rattle noise coming from under car at low rpm

I recently noticed on a more spirited drive that when I came to a stop sign, and let off the clutch to continue a mild rattle was coming from under the car and maybe 2 feet behind the drivers' seat at about 700 to 1100 rpm. Ever since the rattle only comes back after about 30 minutes of the car running. I recently replaced the clutch so I ruled that out, I think it may be a flywheel or a DISA valve but I'm really not sure. I haven't noticed any problems with power or the transmission not shifting correctly so I really don't know what it could be.

Check the flex disc(guibo ) . I had a metallic rattle that slowly clinked when engine braking or coming to a stop in 1st or second. (Sounded like the wheel of fortune wheel when coming to a stop) Replaced it and the shaft bearing since it was torn in many places with an oem part and sound is gone !
