I'd assume both 2.5 & 3.0 cam pulleys are the same as each other, otherwise you'd need different cam belts for each engine.  ;)

started to strip it down today,thought I would check belt timing before pulling it off,glad I did,both banks about half a tooth out >:(.This is a gm kit fitted by a vauxhall tec 10000 miles ago just before I got the car,still,might explain why I have always thought it was a bit heavier on fuel than it should be :'(
