Default 2005 GT Low oil pressure

I have a rattling noise on start up, last a few seconds. Shop told me it was coming from timing chain area, 60,000 miles on engine. My thinking is I have low oil pressure on start up or not getting oil to tensioners. Do the tensioners maintain oil pressure and is it possible they are bleeding off when they shouldnt? Anybody have any ideas or similar problem?

What oil and weight are you running, where are you located and does the car sit out or in overnight?

Oil weight is 5-20. The car sits out overnight and located in Oklahoma.
