I'd love to attempt a rebuild, but I'm really constrained on time. I may keep the old engine and give it a try over a longer period of time. Not sure about doing it with the engine in the car, though... The shop indicated that they'd have to open the case in order to address the tensioners, and for that it has to be removed.

Plus, since the engine ran after the failure, I'd imagine that all the valves on the right side of the engine would be bent/broken.
