I'd use a fixed FM trap.

The metal in your roof is a source of reflection but if you are mounted 5' or more above the roof, it's not going to de-tune the antenna enough to be of great concern. You can experiment with mounting height (4" to 6" increments) to see if there is a 'sweet spot'. Higher is usually better.

You attic on the other hand is a poor location for an antenna.
