If a secondary tensioner is failing the exhaust cam sprocket could skip a tooth, resulting in rough idle and possible misfire codes. If it skips two teeth valve damage is likely.
It's best not to attempt to start the engine until the problem is resolved.
Do a search for secondary tensioners, lots of info and also DIY help. Any reasonable amateur mechanic can do this repair using the zip tie method.
