So after the recent noise with my 3.0l six I tried changing the throwout bearing, and that seemed to work, but the noise returnedf and I couldn't relly pin it down, it didn't really seem like the chains but I figured what the hell I will pull and inspect anyway.

Here is what I found. I thought oh good it's not the tensioners they look good.

Can you spot the problem?
