Cb 550 ss spain

Hello, as I had a leak in the cap of the pan, I decided to remove it to repair it and look at the chain.
from below I move it easily with a finger upwards, it also has play to the sides, I found some marks that confirm its flight
murdock:
It is also somewhat dirty inside, I have already bought a chain, I must find out what else to ask for since I am going to open it, I should do the right thing
Bryanj:
The 550 has more clearance to the main oil gallery than the 500 so chain has to be really worn to cause bad damage, its the sort of thing uou change if you have to split the cases for another reason
murdock:
enlarging the photo you can see the chain pins as if they were touching somewhere the plates are black but they are not
I should buy the primary shaft rubbers, the bearings, I still don't know whether to order the transmission ones as well, I don't think they are necessary
K2-K6:
Is the grey marking on the chain just old oil, can it be wiped off with a tissue?
