Would oil anaylsis identify balance chain problem?

I'm not having problems, but I am looking for ways to minimize problems. Would oil analysis detect balance chain problems early? That is, before damage to other components such as the oil pump. Has anyone done this? How often should it be done assuming there are no problems? Does anyone know over what time frame the balance chain fails? (i.e. would oil analysis identifiy a problem 10,000 miles or more before failure?)
