Sorry,but I stand my ground. I've experienced a dozen or more of these rail failures on both the early 116s and 117s and the late 116s and 117s. I have never seen bent valves on the right bank. That cam continues to stay in time with the engine. the 103 chains have been discussed here and it appears they are fairly bullet proof as long as the car is maintained well
