john,you will need to remove both valve covers and turn over the engine by hand until you reach tdc.now slowly move the engine until the mark on the drivers camshaft lines up.now look at the timing marks on the crank front pulley and see how far past tdc the pointer is.this will tell you how much stretch in the chain.
