Sounds kind of dumb that they would send a "made up" chain and no repair link. Why don't you check with the vendor for a "repair link" It is a pretty simple operation to grind off one link to open the chain, roll it in from the top per the plan and close it up with the repair link. That repair link has to be crimped in a very professional manner. Don't short cut that part of the job.
