A quick question on Cam gears. My spare engine (3277) has the gears that only say IN and EX. The gears say IN on one side and EX on the other side. They only have one line scribed on each (no 110 or 115 marks). Standing in front of the car looking back at the front of the engine should the IN side of gear go on the Intake cam and EX side of the gear go on the Exhaust cam?  It is possible to put EX forward on the intake cam and IN forward on the exhaust cam which gives different cam timing (and probably bent valves). The manual is not clear on this point and I just want to be sure.
