I'm almost positive this is what's causing lifter ticks on the 3.6 liters. I had a lifter tick on the intake passenger side cam and the galley bolt on the intake side was loose.

Exhaust galley bolt was nice and snug, no lifter tick, no wear on the cam lobes, no scoring on the cam caps.

TIGHTEN YOUR GALLEY BOLTS NOW BEFORE YOU GET A TICK!

In the 3rd and 4th picture you can see that I cracked the guide that the timing chain uses on the 3.6L engine. Is this something that I'm gonna regret later, or is it just so niche that I might be ok.

First time doing anything this crazy with an engine, the most extent I've had was my oil cooler.

Let me know because I'm stressing haha.
