yeah timing chains are a pig, only done them once but its not a quick job, sooooo much has to be removed to get to it. sorry don't know much about what to do in regards to the dvla.

I don't think you will need an engineers report to change the engine on the V5, but if you don't and you crash then your insurance will be invalid. Have a look at the V5 as it will have notes with it on what is required to be filled in on each section. There's probably an FAQ on the DVLA's website if you get really stuck, or just ring them.
