"...a gear puller is needed for the cam gear..."

Nope. Hold your hand under the cam sprocket so it doesn't fall on the floor.

If you pull the valve cover and yank #1 bearing cap, you can pluck the old seal with two fingers. One, maybe.

Torque spec on the cam (and I-shaft and tensioner) nuts/bolts is 37 lb-ft. Torque spec for the crank pulley center bolt is 44 lb-ft. plus 60-degrees of rotation. Impact wrench NOT recommended.
