Sorry, I just came back from KC. On your next trip to the pick & pull, grab a new plastic cam cover which has 2 notches - no one ever takes them.

Your exhaust header shouldn't 'smell' and could be an exhaust leak. Remember, your muffler could be full of antifreeze from the #3 leak, which doesn't help matters.

Re-check the cam gears. Make sure you have the bolts where they were initially. The crank gear mark is almost microscopic! The 'scratch' can look like a very tiny dent in the back of the valley, on the oil pump side.

Because you could idle the engine long enough to warm it up, the timing isn't too far off. More than 1 tooth would/should have caused an error code.

Don't forget to check the cam position sensor wires - they must be below the distributer so that the plug wires don't touch it.
