In most every engine the tensioner (manual or auto) presses against a chain slide made from a nylo/plastic material. Being made out of this kind of stuff, over the years it wears and if left long enough actually breaks up, so maybe it would be a good idea to the condition of the slides, as well as the tensioner.
