Some chains are made from seamless tube for the links... Some are not.[Cheap, seamed tube rollers have a tendancy to slide instead of roll] Use care as to what U buy...
My $$ is on the rollers out of the chain. In that case, the gears are toast. NO point in taking a chance for only a few $$.
Over rev can get the valves kissin the pistons...Doesn't bode well for the chain, either. I'm sure this has never happened.

Thanks for the update, OP. Too often these kinds of threads are never resolved. Props! And better luck this time.
