Recently I am hearing a rattling noise from the engine bay and it increases as I accelerate especially when cold started.

Get the engine oil pressure tested just to make sure there is not a problem there, and try running the engine with the drive belts removed to see if the noise goes, do not drive just check it running. This will show if it is related to external equipment such as alternator or A/C.
