I could probably call in after work and pop the belt on for you.

Thanks for the offer. I have had my head down all day finishing it off. Managed to time the belt up OK after playing around with the adjustments a few times. Had real probelmes getting the nearside exhaust downpipe back onto the manifold but managed it after some serious persuasion. Was a bit woried when I started it up and there was an awful rattle from the 1-3-5 bank. I asume it was the hydraulic lifters as it all quitened down after a few minutes. Took it for a drive and got the engine management light but discovered the connector in the back right hand corner of the plenum chamber had popped off so soon sorted. No sign of anything leaking yet, so far so good.  i will run the valve spring compressor and valve seal pliers back one evening. Any preference for you?
