Great suggestions
If budget is an issue. These types of tensioners are used on many cars on the timing chain.
For Rebound Rumble we got one off a junk Toyota (free

) and used it on our chain driven ball delivery system.
Works great.
Even new they are not a deal breaker.
Such as the OSK listed here.

Nice thing about the car ones, besides being durable, they are wider and you can offset your chain groove.
Good time to create a connection with an auto parts store in the area.
