Cheers for the much needed advice
couldnt get on here last night (server problems?) to reply but getting there. Have heard about using a compresser or rope to take the stem seals out but wanted to check everything was ok inside so went the hard route. Is it ok to leave the manifold and first part of the exhaust on (where the two join to one) or do I have to get that off? Read I need a special tool to split manifold from exhaust but cant see where it goes? Head will be off tonight after a few F38ck ups that a so called mechanic who lives up the road has caused, namely making me undo the crankshaft bolt to release the cambelt and wedging the camshaft with a jack handle to lock engine to undo it..`corse the belt slipped and now ive got extra problems to sort hopping the valves aint bent....dont know whos more a twit, him or me taking his advise. head should be off tonight though lol

If you are talking Cam shaft then yes, they are off set and it does look like there should be one more. Just remember that when you start stripping to mark everything up or at least, put the things you take off back the way you originaly found them.
