Thanks for the answers Tuffty.
I am surprised too Karl, when I was rotating the engine to see if I could see anything through the valves opening - they only seemed to move a tiny bit - this was only turning the engine over as well as it didn't start (due to forgetting to plug in injectors). you really couldn't make it up, but anyway opportunity to modify I suppose - so as the head needs to be repaired in any case I should remove the cams and valves making sure I mark them up then if all okay when head returned lap them back in, and make sure the cam chain is fitted correctly.
