Well when looking at the front of the engine.
When the crankshaft mark is at 6:00 clock (keyway)
the right hand camshaft mark (driverside) is at 1:00
the left hand cam shaft ,mark is at 11:00
this what I remember .I will have to go look at my shop manua.

Did you put the crank sensor tone ring back on before you installed the timing cover? And I have always put the crank keyway at 12 o'clock whick puts the crank timing mark at about 7 o'clock and both cams are set to 12 o'clock then mark the chains and put them on lining up the marks. Never failed me yet.
