Ok I have found out what is happening.
The crank is moving forward when the clutch pedal is depressed very
slightly. This moves the timing chain away from the timing cover.
I remove the slight pressure on the pedal and the crank moves toward the
rear of the engine causing the timing chain to hit the inside of the timing
case.
Am I correct in thinking there is excessive play in the main bearings . Is
there an easy fix for this.
Maybe space the alternator to-wards the front of the engine causing the belt
to pull the crank forward.
It wouldn't need to be much.
Any thoughts
