Engine knocking.
I think the day ive been dreading may of came. I started up my 97 wrx classic today and to start with it sounded fine, after 2-3 minutes the engine started knocking is this going to mean the big end or could i be lucky and it be something more simple?

Doesn't sounds good, but could well be something more simple. Get it to a trusted specialist, the key word being trusted, as many companies will happily charge you a couple of thousand to do a rebuild you don't need.

You wouldn'lt get piston slap starting 2-3 minutes after starting the engine. It would be there from turn over (assuming the engine is cold) and then gradually die off as the engine warms up.
