I'll just call it good for now then. The main thing was replacing the chain, which was keeping me up at night. Went much smoother than trying to figure out that dumb tensioner, and the chain was the part that I thought was going to be hairy. None of it was making noise, but I was rebuilding the front end after a crash, so I figured it would be as easy as it gets to do it now with everything out. Plus I don't have any record of it being done (270k miles).

On to the next project...
