I’m not surprised to have had so few replies - it’s not as simple as single rotor PoF. I suspect that there will be a small torque reduction as there is a small pedal input needed in the hover to maintain heading because of the unequal proportion of lift generated by each head (Chinook 45% front, 55% aft) at different heights thus creating a couple - the tandem rotor equivalent of tail rotor roll.
