Does your sprocket have a lip on one side? Did you remove any spacers? Did the engine shift over when you loosened it to remove the chain?

As far as I know the engine didn't move sideways but it seems to be out by about 10mm and all that was on the small sprocket was the sprocket and a retainer washer with 2 small bolts. Whe I pull the cover off I will post pics up thanks

Make sure there is no slop in the transmission output shaft. The center axle should be fixed in place by two bearings. The axle sprocket should be held in place by a spider that is welded to the center shaft. These are the only other areas where there can be misalignment introduced.
