Need a Spot

If you are worried about it being the timing chain you can pop the valve cover off and look down the front timing cover to see if the guides are broke or look for railroad tracks on the inside of the front cover. Also I have seen people with the wrong valve cover so you can look at the inside of that while you are in there and see it the rocker arms are hitting it.
