1960 F100 223 Cam Question

Hey all!

Quick question, rebuilding the 223 and in the process of installing the timing chain (new), manual calls for a cam spacer.....I don't recall ever being a spacer and been through the parts 20 times and don't see any washer type thing that would fit over the cam....anyone know where to buy a new one or a "like" compatible spacer?

Thanks and hope everyone has a Merry Christmas!

Dave

Cam spacer is 6265 in lower pic. Some auto parts store aftermarket replacement timing gears had the spacer made as part of it, so when installing, the spacer was thrown away.
