broken timing chain? is it possible for a timing chain to partial break?
my car has a crazy internal knock, but it idles fine-no smoke-great oil pressure-no miss-no code-. there is a really bad metal to metal grind when the car is shut off. its not the valve train. i have checked all of that. it doesnt sound like a crank bearing. anything else to check?

its pretty difficult to determine the exact location, but when i start to tear it down thats where im going to go first. the noise is louder from the top than the bottom; there isn't anything up there but the valve train. thats why my next guess was the timing chain, but also i dont think it would idle fine if the timing was off. agree?
