Auxillary timing chain fitted. Interestingly the new part had 3 colored links, not 2 like the old one, but the "outside" colored links lined up correctly.

New auxiliary timing chain, guide, tensioner, and oil pump pulley fitted. The new chain had three colored links on it vs two on the old chain, but the outer two links still line up correctly with the old chain.
