timing chain

So I just put a new head gasket on and now find the tensioner wear is 12.5 mm so I guess I need a new timing chain. It slips so that the cam marks don't line up at TDC, but not a full link off.(I noticed this when I pulled the head)My questions are:1) whats the best source for a new chain?2) should I replace all 3 sprockets as well?(I don't see much wear) 3)Can I trust aftermarket like IWIS? 4) What are the symptoms of a worn or stretched chain? 5)Can I do this and not have to pull the head?
The rest of the motor is fresh, so I want to get this right.TIA John
