I’m doing this while I’ve got it out of the car so I don’t have to do it again for a long while.

Might as well replace the water pump while you’re in here, too! Most stuff I’ve seen in my travels says to replace all three chains, the main tensioner, the top guide, the slack guide, and the two small guides in the camshaft chains.
