ignore the stamp on the body of the camshaft. Probably said 'gc' followed by a double figured number? They all say this. You are concerned with the stamp on the neck. Printed dot matrix style, will say 'g' or 'a' followed by a number

Fitted correctly - for some reason though I thought inlet was A :-[

Finishing soon for the day as I am worn out.

Just going to do a pulley or two
