Cam Deviations

Hi all,
My 2002 Boxster 3.2s cam deviations are currently -9.86 on bank 1. Can't check bank 2 due to no sensor on uk cars.
I've not found any chain guide bits in filter or oil pan so was surprised that the deviations were high.
I'm struggling to find anyone to actually changed the guides without wanting to do engine rebuild or astronomical price. Whilst I know its a long job I can't warrant paying that sort of price on a £5k car.
The job is outside my skill range and I have no access to a lift.
So question is what are consequences of driving with the high deviations and is there anything else that can be done to help.
Car currently has 153k miles and drives like a dream with no knocks/ bangs/ smoke other than a slight chain rattle on cold start only.
Any advice welcome.
Thanks
