Also, the engine doesn't typically get ruined just because the chain breaks. Usually all that is needed is a few valves replaced and inspection of the pistons and cylinder walls on that same bank (though they are usually fine). Still not a cheap fix, but certainly nothing that would ruin the engine for good.
