One of the cam chain guides is ok....it's the other that came out, while taking the head off but have no idea how it goes back???











Not even sure which end goes inside first....
This end;



Or this one?



Thanks in advance for any much needed guidence

The guide simply slots in exhaust side from above before the cam is fitted.
The 't' piece locates it in the cylinder head.

So just place guide into exhaust side? how is it secured though......sorry VVS for dumb question

It just slots in, only fits one way.
Its then held by the cam chain turning.

Well actually the cam cover will hold it.
