3.8 rattling like a rod knock

At idle at higher rpm and under load at higher rpm. Was told by one repair shop it was the rod or piston oiler ?! Drives good. I`ve had an engine with a rod knock before and this doesn`t seem like that. Has great power. Doesn`t knock when coasting either. Put foot on brake while in gear and push down on the gas pedal and doesn`t knock. Help !!!!
