I just talked to Enrique at MR MB and I'm to make an appointment to change the timing chain and guides and tensioner on Monday. He says 10-1 my engine has a 2 row timing chain. I think I have him order all the parts for a 2 row timing Chain with new sprockets, then if it isn't a 2 row he can convert it. If it is then maybe swap out the sprockets for new ones?, at his discretion.
It uses no oil at this juncture, so when the timing chain job is done, the engine should be bullet proof for some time to come. I'll have him change over the GREEN antifreeze to the good Yellow stuff with a flush in between, as well as charging the A/C.
