Is dropping the engine necessary to replace the chain tensioner guides?

I'm curious because my deviation is -5 and -6 and may also need to take care of them soon.

It would be nice if you take some pictures of the process because I have not really seen it documented photographically perhaps due to the tight areas
for snapping photos and you are in the perfect position to be able to take full context photos of what this looks like, since your engine has been let out to play.

spark plugs/tubes would be easier, give it a nice wash/dusting, and check all the plumbing for pliability, leaks, chaffing, melting etc.
