precision billet roller setup ???/please help

[bigal]

i have a comp 210/210 billet hyd. roller from precision that i had installed in 2002 apparently the builder used a chain tensioner on the timing chain, and i heard a noise in front of motor and the tensioner broke off and was laying in the front cover, should try to get the spring out and not use the tensioner again or should i pull the pan and front cover and do a once over the timing chain has slack but who knows how long the tensioner was broke. i think i can retrieve all the parts hopefully with a magnetic in oil pan. does anyone have a suggestion. motor ran fine just had a weird noise up front and i found it but now what?, bye the way i got the big piece of tensioner out through cam sensor hole.

You must replace the chain or you will risk jumping time and bending valves.
