I called a few other shops, they too said the engine would have to come out to get to the oil pump chain. Maybe there's a way to get around that, but not a great way to get around that. I don't know, just what I'm hearing.
And maybe I'm even giving the wrong part, maybe it's a different chain but I think he said oil pump chain.
