Better news....😁

Well a couple of hours with an angle grinder, cut a chunk off the front sprocket and extracted the doubled over chain,cut had caused some surface damage to the case and squashed the hard rubber guide/ seal against the clutch push rod. Got it all freed up and found neutral and it's okay!!!!
New chain and sprockets and chain run/ guard will get it running,cbut I'll need advice on two outstanding matters, I'll need to dress the chips/ gouges on the swingarm, ay ideas on what the coating is?
And how is the chain run/ guard fixed to the swingarm....looks like some kind of rivets, s there an aftermarket copy or will I have to bother Borgo Panegale/ bank manager?
Not sure what caused the chain failure, well lubed, looks like it takes at joining link.
Anyway, look like I've dodged one.....
