Sign of Idler Gear Problems?

What are the signs of a chipped idle gear tooth?

The clutch is awful noisy and goes away when the lever is pulled in. Also, when kickstarting the lever seems to skip a tooth every now and then. It's around the same point so I'm assuming it's the pawl gear slipping from the idler gear. I pulled the cover and the pawl seems fine but I can't see the back of the idler gear to know if it's chipped.

I must be too hard on this thing. It's one thing after the other it seems!
