the chain will not fall off the crankshaft or the injection pump gear. There is a separate chain for the oil pump

you will not lose timing if you make marks on the chain in reference to the cam sprocket, and drop the chain... but it is nice to have chain available for access

So the cam must come out and if I leave chain on the the gear the chain and the gear will come throught the head when I take the head off?
