.005 or .010 shorter cam chain needed?

Measuring my 455 cam to crank cl. I know it's been line bored twice at least. My CL comes out at 5.18525". I read stock is 5.192. So .00675 closer. Are chains measured in distance closer or overall chain length shorter? Ie. A .005 shorter is for .0025" cl closer distance?

And, I got a new comp cams double roller set. Had lots of play. Why I checked. Can I just get shorter chain or do I need to buy a whole new set?

Brand new the cc chain has over 3/8" slack
