always always change the timing belt and tensioneres on that engine unless you can verify it being done and at what mileage, but you choose to spend money on mods instead. I would not bother to attempt to repair that engine, it would never be the same. Take it you bought it privately and dont have a warrenty? again see reason for timing belt.

There was a low mileage c16xe on Ebay, got to be more economically viable fitting that then attempting to fix yours. plus easy to do new timing belt and tensioners at the same time.
