weird advice from mechanic

Hello. My mechanic (owner of 94 s420) knows everything about Benzes and BMWs. He did a lot of different jobs on 3 of my MBs and I was very pleased with his knowledge and work. But when I brought new timing chain to replace old making noise chain in my 92 500sel, he said he will not roll it in. He will need to open timing chain cover and change chain as 1 peice. I changed few giude rails and others(inner) look good. Chain makes noise like its a bearing noise. Very annoying. My mechanic said that if I'll roll chain in attached to old one, new chain will most likely break. Thats the reason he will not do it. Any thoughts on this situation? He is very reasonable price wise but I heard that poeple change chains even themselfs. I am DIYer but its cold out and really want to change it. Any advice? Thank you
