N62 timing chain

Good evening.
I have an non-running N62 engine that I have been taking apart as a project. The engine has zero to very little compression on all cylinders.
Today, I was able to remove the valve cover (after being stuck with multiple stripped valvetronic bolts) and found, to my surprise, that the timing chain was completely off the camshaft!
I was wondering if anyone else has seen this before, or any insight as to what would cause it? My search had came up empty so far.
