Hmm, I suspect the chain can actually be done in car (I may well be wrong tho!) Charles (thechuckster) has been doing more to 5M-E's recently than me recently tho!  ....it would be a massive shit of a job tho!
if you drop the front timing cover off (which would require the sump coming off I'm pretty sure, not a fun in car job  , otherwise I don't like your chances of sealing the bottom of the timing cover when you goto put it back on!)...then if you take the cam gear off and the tensioner out, the chain should be able to taken out...bear in mind that the parts are not really cheap either! The timing chain guides aren't cheap, nor is the chain, also there is an idler gear (plastic!!!!) that when I bought it 4yrs ago was around $100 by itself!
I'd be keen in following charles path  if its a 5M-E and its running, leave it.
Cheers
Wilbo
