Yes, I believe there is a way to rotate the main crank while the valve cover is off to see the chain rotate. It'd be worth it to do for peace of mind, at the very least.

Guess I'll order valve cover gaskets as well, "and the bill grows"
I'm not a big fan of something like seafoam as I have heard that if you have gunk deposits it can break them loose and they get stuck places they shouldn't...
Also, do the additive/cleaning before you change the oil. Just my opinion.
