I'll grab my camera and check my guides. Thanks for the suggestion as I was so frustrated I didnt think to do that.

I dont think the oil filter parts are replaceable but I can be wrong. It would require a new oil filter housing or at the least a low mile one. I have new guides (not done by me- so I cant say what else has been done) but I still get the occasional cold start rattle. My 740 gets it sometimes too and it has all new guides, tensioner, vanos rebuilt, new check valves. What kind of oil filters do you use?
