For the loose end links, that has to do with the connector piece of metal that connects the last link and the end piece. That piece becomes loose after all those years. You can either bend it with a pair of round pliers to tighten it.
Or the easy way out is to squeeze on the end piece so that it becomes slightly thinner , that way it pushes it out from the mid case and creates a little tension to stop the rattling. It is reversible so don't worry about trying.
If you are still unhappy with the results, maybe its time to get a complete refurb of the whole band.
