    If they didn't use a balance shaft delete chain, the chain would be too long. They probably tried to take up the slack by using all the adjustment of the guides - that would cause the chain to slap and do the damage you see.

    what does the timing chain have to do with the balance shaft on the oil pump assembly they are separate from each other?
