As reported earlier, there were several not serious but different markings on the rear bank cam shaft especially on the intake side.
R2 cam holder showing extra line markings.
On R3 cam holder, noticed a chip, almost identical to the one you will see on casting issue when a few sand pieces were left.
Probably debris was trapped when line boring was done at the factory.
Good quality eng oil will act as good molecule bearing so just keep replacing the oil regularly.
New o-ring under the #1 cam holder.
One must create clean and oil free mating surface on the cam holder as well as on the cyl head before applying the liquid gasket.
No time taking the photo while dealing with the liquid gasket so just the end result.
Carefully tightened the cam holder bolts while keeping the metal at steady temperature.
Punched in the camshaft brown seal.
Is your camshaft black end disc/seal clean and dry like this?
This is how it should look when left the factory and if done properly, it should stay dry for many years.
Before placing the cam pulley, clean the mating surface of the valve cover gasket as much as possible as the space will be limited once other parts are installed.
All four camshafts back in place.
Beautiful.
