Take the timing chain tensioner out. No need to take the front cover off.

If you're just trying to get the cylinder head off then you don't need to remove the timing chain... I am assuming that the motor is still in the car?

Just remove the sprockets and just keep tension on the chain as you remove the cylinder head. It takes two people but can easily be done... here's proof


Edit - Oh yeah, and remove the tensioner as mentioned above.
