I guess replacing the easy ones first and re-measuring the cam deviation is a good approach.

I don't notice any chain rattle yet on startup. I'll check my oil filter for particles as well in the next couple months at the oil change.
Ray, your car is still within factory specs. Change your oil often and pay attention to the bits in the filter. Your car may go another 30K miles without issue.
