You have the dreaded broken chain guides. You need to replace them and the chain before you try to start the engine. The guides shed pieces into the running chain and cause the valve timing to move then the real damage happens as the pistons start hitting valves. How about the other side? Are any of them broken?

You need the 3 guides, chain and the tensioner rail replaced pronto.
