This might be sage advice.
I agree using a master link chain and replacing the cam and idler sprockets will gain some time.
But time is beginning to run out. And that is the unfortunate part of owning an old engine.
Wajid,
Just keep track of what is happening, and look for other signs of impending “old” issues like oil consumption and possibly head studs or general excessive leaks and decreasing performance. Worn out chains are an indication of age.
