G35 Jingling

So I was listening to my engine earlier today and heard this jingling noise, I was wondering if it's normal or something I should be concerned about. Or maybe its just the car being excited for the holiday season and has grown a little bell in the engine bay. The noise is really only audible while idling if that helps any. Thank you all in advance

On my 05 sedan I had a similar sound that would go away when the engine was idled up. It turned out to be worn idlers on the a/c & alternator belts. Replaced them both, no more jingling, fairly cheap fix and o"Reilly's stocks them in Gates. You have to remove the undercover and fan assembly to get to them. It's a little tight to get the fan assy out but I don't remember having to open up the cooling system because of the upper hose. May have to adjust belts twice, I did.

I would also guess a pulley. Remove the belts and check for play or noise.
