Is the oil cap on? Sounds silly, but if the unscrew themselves, they'll fall between the transmission and the body and rattle forever.

In all seriousness, my car does the same thing at the same RPM. I never did find out what it was, then I got a test pipe and I can't hear it anymore.

Sounds like something may have fallen into the heatshield like colin suggested with the oil cap. You could try taking it off and looking for any loose nuts or bolts that might have fallen in.

any mods? stuff that's not factory always seem to come loose. you need to periodically check those things.
