The shiny links are only there for the first installation, to make it easier. After the chain is installed, they'll only be right every X number of rotations. It's the notch and groove, and ignition timing mark, that you use after the engine's been rotated.

Well I feel a lot better and dumber after reading that. I pulled that cover the other day for nothing. 8 (

Thank you Zed Head. Lesson learned, the right lesson this time.
