Yes. There is no way to access the plastic chain ramps for the IMS drive chain without splitting the case.

You could replace all three tensioners, the outer ramps for the vario cam to cam chains, and with some awkwardness the long ramps for the chains that run from the IMS to the heads.

That center chain and ramps are in there for the long haul
