For abit now iv had a slight rattle whilst driving (which you can't hear on the videos).
Seems to be when I accelerate more so, could this be the markii pipe or more like the exhaust ?

Iv done these videos to see if the engine and exhaust sound ok when I was listening to the exhaust it sounded abit bubbly :-/
But like I say to hear the rattle  is have to be driving which il try and get one later on.

Sounds ok to me.

Could be the heat shields rattling. The fastenings are prone to rusting and getting a bit loose. The rattle from this will normal manifest itself as a specific rev range, often on acceleration when the vibrations are higher.

You won't get a rattle from the Markiii pipe.


EDIT: Forgot to mention, I had the heat shield noise on acceleration issue on mine. In my case it was the y-pipe shields on the cat, this was my fix...

I've since found another noise which I think is the main cat shield as one of the bolts has rusted straight through and dropped out.

Ooooh now that's a question... I think it was a 90mm and 70mm. Might be mistaken though so let me check back in my eBay history and see if I can find out for sure.
