I re-assembled and fitted the cylinder head. The engine is still siezed! I'm afraid that I'll find serious damage in the rear end of the engine. I mean by that the rear bank. Am feeling a bit miserable and wonder how much longer I can continue with this. However so much has been dismantled that removing the rear head is not a major problem. When I removed the exhaust cam wheel the key had a small step cut into it. So that the crossection of the key was "Z" shaped. It looked as though it had been deliberately filed . I wonder why! There is probably enough meat left on the key to hold but I suppose I'll have to look for a replacement. Patience is wearing thin I can assure you.
Patience is a virtue found never in a woman(dare I say it) and seldom in a man.
That's what my father told me many years ago and he was very wise but he could never survive in today's PC world.
