I think you will find that most people will say that a new chain will have 1/2" of play where you have 3/4", so to me it's chain time!

While it's apart you can prove to yourself how many degrees the timing at the Dizzy may be retarded in relation to the Crank by taking of the cap and watching how the rotor sits still while you rock the Crank back and forth that 3/4".
