01 ML320 Timing Chain Noise 140k Miles

On my 01 ML320 i am hearing some noise from the timing chain but only on low idle. When I am driving or give it heavy gas I do not hear it. When I open the oil cap you can hear the tensioner moving around.

The car has 140k miles. Does this sound like the entire timing chain needs to be replaced or just the tensioner?
