Never heard of a belt rattle, most likley you are hearing a rattle on cold startup from the end bearing assembly. It would be slightly louder running more on the bearings at startup. It is nothing to worry about. Vortech designed the end unit for thermal expansion and once things heat up a tad the rattle sound goes away correct..?

Is the new S/C pulley aligned with the rest of the pulleys?

check the tensioner. I had a rattle turns out that the stud holding the bottom part of the tensioner shock was broken.
