Is my timing chain shrinking?

Is my timing chain shrinking?
So I will try to make this as short and sweet as possible. I recently blew a headgasket... and when i went to remove cam gear all i had to do was just tap it off with a rubber mallet. Fast forward a little bit... torqued the head down and my sprocket is about the width of the dowel to short. After reading the manual I have found that possibly by moving the crankshaft it might let some slack out, no dice. So what is going on here the engine is a rebuild with 30k on it and I have not lost timing. Any ideas? thanks

You have to push in the tensioner. Just reach something down the front of the engine like a long screwdriver and push it in and pull up on the cam sprocket, it should slide right on.
