2002 Acura Rsx Type S Timing Chain Off by a tooth?

I saved a 2002 Acura Rsx Type S from going to the junkyard. I tried to start it and it would shut off after 3-6 seconds ive got only one code for the camshaft position sensor p0341 i changed out the sensor just to see and i had the same problem. I decided to check if the chain was loose because ive seen that the tensioners tend to go bad at 150k miles this one has close to 220k. When checking the chain it appears to be after market/ not OEM. Im almost 100% sure timing is off by a tooth the chain markings are not lined up with the cam. Can this engine be saved?
