Do you think that is what he was talking about because he wasn't really specific with me but he did say it was by the crank pulley. My valve cover was cut back to where you can see the cam gears completely...I don't know if that would make a difference and I still have stock cam gears. The plastic timing belt cover is a little cut up too. The reason I am asking this is because my friend has a b18b1 he is parting out and he said if I can figure out what the part is I can have it off his motor so I would really like to see a picture of how these motors get timed so I can see exactly what I am missing.
