I would set the TDC and lock both sides.
back off all the tensioners, see if it re-aligns, or can be realigned.
check your oil filter for any particulates -- especially aluminum.
it's possible that the tube was rotating at an angle and grinding on the far side.
Only way to know for sure would be to pull the oil pump off and inspect the far side of the tube. I doubt that can be done with the engine in -- but I could be wrong.
I just don't remember enough about the clips to know which tube has what profile.
I thought there was a recess/lip that would not allow the bearing to travel any further
than it was supposed to longitudinally. In other words I don't think you could
put a dual in where a single was -- but not sure about vis-versa.
