To find out if it is the chain you could mark the side with a small piece of masking tape and spin the chain.
If the tape is always in the same place when the clicks happen it's time to examine the links.
To check for wear you are looking at some links wearing out ( getting longer ) and if the chain is dancing up and down at the same time the tape is in a particular place ( in sync ) it calls for the same inspection.
As highly unlikely as it may be for the low miles of the chain it's not impossible and you may eliminate the chain by doing these checks if not already done so, interesting find
If you remove the oil filler cap on the right you can see if the clutch basket is rotating, i am picking it is stationary since it is connected to the crank shaft.
