I have the shop manual if you need it. Gonna start getting mine back together during this week.

i think is just chain that need to be adjusted just i dont know how to get there i heard that you need to take all engine apart to get to alternator but i donthing i need do it if i just need to adjust chain in it

The tensioner for the alternator chain is automatic. Slack chain equals nackered and its an engine out job I'm afraid. Thankfully I had the sense to do mine when in was in pieces for something else so hopefully I've a few years before it needs doing again.

However I will soon have a running engine with all bottom bearings changed, cam and alternator chain done and valve stem seals (etc etc). Could potentially take yours and rebuild it.
