Decision Time- Replace Timing Chain?

91 560 SEL - 115k

Well I have gone this far into the motor so why not do the timing chain, Right? It all started with no heat, so a good place to start was with the thermostat. That turned into a water pump removal since I broke a bolt in the top of the darned thing and tried drilling and using an Easy Out with no luck. Now with most of the front of the engine apart should I go for the chain or just the guide rails? I,m driving the 944S so I can take my time. I have AllData and the factory CD manual but it will not open now so its useless. Anyone else have problems with the CD manual? Does the front cover use a gasket or just sealant?
