you shouldnt break anything. its a timing chain. to make things easy on your self mark evertyhing.
mark your crank pulley to the block
mark your cam sprockets to the upper timing chain
mark you lower timing chain to the middle timing gear.
when you take things apart try and keep you lower chain tight. also there are 2 brackets under your intake manifold that need to be unbolted if you dont want to replace the intake gasket. drain your radiator to so you dont get it every where
where do you live
car 55. do you need my assistance?

before you take the cam gear off, and everthing is @ TDC...put a block of wood with a string on it to "shim" the chain (below the head), therefore you won't mess up timing on the lower end.
