Slack is No indicator at all, unfortunately. Twist the chain sideways.. it shouldn't bend much if healthy. Also check sprocket teeth, both sides of a tooth should be similar in shape /condition. Hooked tooth shape on the thrust side and you ..immediately.. need ; New sprockets, including the crankshaft one, and a New chain. Guide(s) condition is self evident, although the top one in the valve cover is rubbery when new..certainly not now tho, as a guess, replace it without further thought.
Always a can 'o worms when one opens up an aging machine.
