I havent been this deep into the F20c. Does it have a second chain for the oil pump and a tensioner and guide on it or are you referring to the tensioner and guide that is up at the top of the block for the cams?

yes it does have a second chain the main one and a small one for the oil pump

personally i would, and i am sure the cost of them in the states is reasonable, however saying that i reused mine, after an engine refresh a few weeks back but i had only done 12k on the engine

while your building it you might aswell stick all new in, can only be better for it
