Not nescessarly. Some chain noise just after a start for a few secondes is normal.
Start with simple things first.
When was the last time the oil filter housing was replaced ? You can buy a housing with the filter for under $30.00. And it worth every penny believe me. I did last spring and it eliminated the chain noise that I got. It also eliminated an annoying valve tappet sound from the engine. The housing got a bypass valve at the bottom that may corrode and get stucked.
Also make sure you put the correct grade oil and replace with a good quality oil.
Good luck
