Could be one of the tensioners, might even be the bottom pulley as mine rattled when it was on it's last legs.
You say you had a new belt, has it been tensioned up correctly, as when i had my new belt fitted they didn't tension it up properly, they hadn't adjusted it using the manual tensioner and all that was tensioning it was the spring loaded one, and mine rattled and the noise was the spring loaded tensioner hitting it's stops.
So i just tensioned it correctly with the manual one first and then all was good, you could notice it as you could see the belt bouncing on the longest part of the run at the bottom between the crank pulley and aircon compressor.
