I am pretty sure that the cam chain is off on the xs650 I just bought. I didn't realize until I went to tune the bike. First I found the chain tensioner was super loose then I couldn't get both valves to open on one cylinder at tdc. I have couple of questions for anybody who wouldn't mind helping me out.
Is this engine damaged? Salvageable?
I've never done anything more than periodic maintenance and basic tuning, how time consuming is something like this (assuming worst possible scenario) to repair, is this something I should even try to do myself?
Thanks in advance to anybody willing to help me out.

Oh and by the way, this is a great site. I've learned a few things already, I think...
