Mine is a Hazet set of 2 shorter wrenches+the retainer,the nuts need a torque reference of 20-30Nm IIRC.

I think it should be mentioned that there are a couple or three types of camshaft... and certain types of followers and valve cap nuts... these things are touching each other and must match up as some level... there are two types of cap nut ( the top one ) and one can be used with either type of follower... but the other is restricted as to what it can be put next to...
So everyone needs to check these things when replacing these items to prevent damage from mismatching...
