Mild clanging noise from engine (notably when cold) 700 1990

1990 740GL (B230F)
Absolutely love this car! I've recently noticed a clanging noise coming from the engine...especially when cold and get's quiet after it warms up. I think I recall reading from other owners about "piston slap".....piston(s) getting loosey-goosey?? The car has 280,000+ miles on the clock...all original and timing belt changed 50K ago....
