Now I would like to reiterate that the valve covers were off and there were no oil pressure when that main tensioner was clicking
this does not make sense. The tensioner should not make any noise at rest.
The links being off is a concern. The one chain needs to be adjusted to the 12 links.
The slack from the chains will be normal at rest but tensions up when oil pressure applied. The small chains are not effected by the tensioner. I suggest replacing the tensioner as it sounds like it is not working correctly.
