I went through a similar thing on my bike after I removed the shaft that went through my primary for the mid-controls. I used an expanding plug (rubber stopper with hole and a bolt in it, tighten the bolt and the rubber expands) to plug the inner-primary...
The rubber fell apart. The bolt fell to the bottom of the primary and got wedged in between the housing and the ring-gear. Locked it up solid as you can get...
Found it when I pulled the primary cover off. I was able to get the bolt out, all remaining rubber, etc. Used 1/2 NPT tap and a pipe plug on the inner. Lots of loc-tite. Haven't had a problem since...
What kind of tensioner did you order? I've heard that the M6 is good and then its supposed to be pretty simple to upgrade(?) to the later model style auto-tensioner...

Pulled the jackshaft and inspected everything in the starter and it all looks good. I am wondering if a piece of plastic from the tensioner shoe got wedged up by the starter gear. Tensioner stuff is on order and time will tell. Hmmm may so ? One of those fancy automatic tentioners would be nice- they's around $hundred I think... Don't know about your primary chain, but mine seldom gets loose. Strange the tentioner came apart though aint it.
