Heat shield rattle question?

How many heat shields do we have on our cars, i have been getting this really annoying rattle that makes the car sound like a cluncker!
Is the only heat shield we have above the cataletic converter? Do we have any in the motor compartment?

there is a heat sheild on each manifold. Then there is one on the cat itself, and above it. There are also shields along the back .

Fred has headers so he doesn't have the manifold heat shields.
