Question Im having a Squeaking kinda like a knockin

I am having a squeaking kinda like a slight knocking in the engine sounds like its comming from the front of the engine , so i pulled the engine outta the car and pulled the oil pan and everything as far as the pistons and rods and crank seem to be good .. As i will let you know This is a Brand new Ls2 Engine with about 13000 miles on it .. so i pulled the front engine cover off and seem when i spun the flex plate in the rear of the engine .. it sounds like the Timing chain has alot of play in it and sounds like its clicking in the gears ... im just kinda wondering what everyone would think about it ... please let me know .. thanks much ..
