Oh my god, only just seen this! Feel so sorry for you Craig after only just buying it.
I know everything seems well, but honestly for what little knowledge I have that metal to metal clacking for even a brief period must have caused some damage, no matter how small. OK so it has new oil filling in the gaps at the moment but if I were you I'd start putting some money aside and buy a spare bottom end even if it's a case of it sitting in your garage.
Sorry to put a dampener on things but as the experts have identified the sound as possible bottom end failure then they know best, and its probably best to plan for the worst, and if the problem never arises you have a spare engine to re-sell.
Are you confident when using the car or are you cautious in expectation?
