it will still make a noise - maybe not as bad.
imho it's not worth it to replace |

I'd think that if the cam chain's knackered then new guides might be a good idea too... But I agree with Billy that changing or even just resetting the tensioners could help. It might not even need that. Most of the time, cam chain noise is just fine, but it's not always...
