Ok that's an assumption on my part. What is stopping you from doing that?

The casting shape which narrows below where the barrel spigots get to mate

Oh dear oh dear... well, perhaps I can just get away with replacing the tensioner... guess I won't know till its all in bits anyways.
mike the bike:
You need to split the crankcase to get at the tensioner as it's bolted to the top crankcase. How, you don't need to remove the barrels or cylinder head. Undo the top securing bolts, then urn it upside down and remove the rest. You also need to withdraw the primary shaft via the oil pimp side first, as well as removing the gearchange bits and the clutch. Best get a manual.
