The chain tensioners , to which you are referring, are accessed from the exterior of the engine. The camshaft chain tensioner pads are accessed by removing the cam covers (special tools required) but not opening the crankcase.
Have you run a scanner (Durametric or ...) to verify cam deviation, etc?
