Should I carefully spin the engine and guide the chain and gear that are just sitting for the 4-6 head until I reach TDC for the other side since that is not apart? Whats the safest way to retime this engine now that I have it apart, and what seems to be out of sequence?

There is a 50% chance you are 360 degrees off for setting 4-6cyl cam timing. To verify remove the 1-3cyl green cam plugs to visually verify 1-3cyl cams are timed right. If the 1-3 cams are correct for TDC then 4-6 bank is 360 degrees off & you need to turn engine 1 revolution CLOCKWISE back to TDC. 1-3cyl cam notches will now be upside down & 4-6 cams are ready for install & timing.
