400ex ticking

01 Honda 400ex has a ticking, slapping noise. It gets louder the more I accelerate. I have a stage 2 hotcam but this seems more than that. I’ve read that the tensioner can go bad but I had it out and I couldn’t push the spring in with my fingers. I do know that the timing chain rollers have bits and pieces missing from them, on the side of them there’s a little ridge well some of its gone. It’s really loud in 1st gear. But in 2nd it’s quieter. Really weird. I’d post a video but I don’t think that possible.
