Odds are you may have picked up something on the chain (piece of gravel, etc.) and ran it through the countershaft sprocket, would be my guess.
I'd imagine that busting a tooth off a gear is virtually impossible, especially with the mammoth HP that these put out. ;-)
Also, it's normal for the CG motor countershaft sprocket to wiggle. That's why I'm not concerned about running a flat sprocket on the rear and having the length of the chain make up the 4mm +/- offset.....or "we'll see".

Keep us posted.
