the CEL was going on and off when the cam sensor was failing. i took it in and they reset it to see if it would come back on. it finally did and i took it back and they put in the new stuff. it took a week to get parts though.

as for noise, there was none that i noticed...

I had the same problem, got it replaced at around 40k. Noticed before they fixe it that will in first gear and release the gas I would get a bit of a whirring noise.

is the cam sensor failure that required the timing chain to be replaced ? and what exactly represents that "CEL" ?

CEL = check engine light. Though maybe you know this and are asking a different question.
