Add me to the engine out and open rear up crowd. I can't imagine that being exhaust at all. Sounds like a piece of the guide or tensioner or the like has broken, and is flopping into the chain path intermittently. May not have snapped off all the way and is hanging, tossing about into the chain. Any other of those rear case pieces, such as gear shift bits might be doing the same, such as Reg mentioned. Only way to know will be pop the case.
Lets HOPE you have not chewed the block up too bad. At least the parts are available.
Check your oil for silver shavings, that could lend a thought for chewing of the block casing by the sloppy chain. And photo journal the stuff as you go along.
You will have great support here in getting it back in shape. Nice looking bike by the way. From what I could see.
Good luck!
