At the top of the Crank pulley there is a notch on outer edge i think, that lines up with another notch on the block/back cover. You will have to remove the inlet manifold to get the rocker cover off to check the cams, They have nothes cut in the end that are offset so a locking tool or something (i used side of spanners) can only be put in one way to lock them in place.

Hope this helps :smiley:

The slots in the end of the cams need to be dead horizontal.
