Bob,
We have seen 2 cars that had the back on the balance chain tensioner pop off and cause the tensioner to fail. The tensioner body is basicly a cylinder and the is seal at the rear by a metal disc that is peened into place. Did you find the disc?. It could be in the pan.
While we did not have the chain come off the sprockets, they did jump time. We just replaced the guide and tensioner, reset the balance timing and were good to go. I would be concerned about the chain if it came off.
Good luck,
Steve C
