I wouldn't touch it

That is, not without having real good reason to replace some stuff. Going back the past 3 or 4 years, the number of engines that have been lost due to screwing with that chain have been many, especially on the 617 diesel. So unless you see real evidence of wear, I would say leave it alone.
