Bad Luck, Murroch but I admire your optimistic response. It may not be young but it's not old-age or retirement age.
I've read there is a "knack" for replacing the tensioner without splitting the crankcases but the problem of debris in the sump remains.
If you're sticking with the bike a replacement engine does seem the easiest soluton. The only source I know of in the US is beemerboneyard. Nothing listed at the moment.
Also I suggest the advrider site. They seem a helpful and resourceful bunch.
You'll want to consider replacing the clutch while you're at it.
And for some consolation: Irma Thomas - maybe "My scrap's in Memphis"
