After lmao, the original must've broken at some point and been replaced with an xud one by the looks, Xu10 pulley on and it all lined up perfect.
Just need to make a tool today to hold the cams in position to tension that last little bit between the pulleys
First of all the cam cover is one single piece with all the bolts in easy to reach places, belt route is easier to get at, tensioner (the 136 tooth anyway) is better and you don't need to drop the engine off the top mount to get at it. And I'm sure there's more room down the side to get your hands in than a diesel

I'm still in 2 minds whether to do mine. Was told it was done 'about a year ago' but can't find any history of it. The crank pulley also looks pretty knackered. Don't wanna mess it up though lol.
