Probably, removing the carbon has now allowed it to work, and rattle around a bit.
Take the side cover off and check it's operating within, normal, parameters

Don't know what the hex head bolt is for but it might be a cover for some machining that was done to the cylinder

I have recently put a rebored barrel and piston onto my bike. It is more rattly than the other that I had on before and I've been over it in much the same way as I suspect you have. Beyond the issue of whether you have lost the little collar that goes on the 'non-lever' end of the PV shaft, all I can suggest is that some barrels are noisier than others, especially after they have been decarbonised

mine came from leisuretrail here in the uk, but try your local honda dealer with the part number 18291-KAE-870 and they may be able to get one for you
