Loud metal clanking when starting that stops when started

Ford Ranger 1998 Manual, 2.2l  150000 miles
1998 Ford Ranger 4cyl manual transmission. Just started making this very loud clanking metal on metal noise when starting only. As soon as the engine starts the noise stops. What could be the issue. The starter engages fine and is not loose. I'm wondering if there is teeth damage on the fly wheel, loose fly wheel bolts etc.. . Any help would be appreciated.
