Bfan I think you are referring to the crank to IMS chain tensioner with replaceable wear pad. I call this a "paddle" to differentiate it from the hydraulically operated tensioners. The LN paddle is billet aluminum & should last for the life of the car with the possible exception of the Porsche replaceable wear pad between the paddle & chain.
