AS I said, forget the ports.You'll get muddled. Use the markings on the face- per the FSM. If Bank 1 the 1-3 marking faces/closest to the c/s
If Bank 2 4-6 faces the c/s.
Is the engine in the car? If so this is a horrid job because of access and visibility. When you lock the c/s be meticulous about it because you can't see the marks head -on.It is very easy to produce a slight camshaft deviation(check with Durametric) then you get to do it all over again - with new O rings and green plugs !
Good Luck and let us know?
