engine rattle

My bike developed a weird rattle/noise at idle. Sounds like a "slapping" noise coming from the front part of the engine - near handle bars. The bike otherwise runs fine.

Loose timing chain, maybe? I'll get it looked at this weekend, but if it's a simple fix that anyone here knows about, maybe I can save a buck or two.
