A timing chain is replaceable, did the valves damage the pistons ?

Typo fixed.

3rd person who has chimed in here and doesn't have an SS. It's easy to miss the title of a thread, and this isn't in the SS specific forum.

No big deal.

Roller chains vibrate like crazy at high rpm. The Ecotec chains that last a long time are driven gently.

What language did GoOgle Translate screw this up from? What does it mean? Anything at all to do with " Timing Chain Life" expectancy?
