I decided to make a separate thread out of it, as it is not Philco, after all, and loosley falls in HiFi restoration.
Need help from the turntable experts, especially those familiar with VOM 1200 series.
I traced the rattling sound once a revolution to this.
When the tonarm goes towards the center of the disk, it pushes out this piece.
When it goes back, the piece does not get retracted.
If I manually push it back the rattling stops.
At the bottom picture, inside the well at the bottom of the circle you will see a tab that is not in the first picture.
Here it is pointed to with a thin red arrow.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
