thanks for the quick reply Jim, that is quite possible, however if the haynes repair manual is correct,i should be on, but there are so many markings notches and my book doesnt seem to be clear on the case markings and my problem seems to be the rear shaft the front one is pretty clear, grumpy52

Did you use a pin (drift, drill-bit, bolt, etc) to lock the rear shaft? There's a mark on the sprocket for the rear shaft, but there's gears that might be off.

First, remove the timing covers & verify all the marks on the sprockets. If that doesn't get you anywhere, try the bolt for the rear balance shaft.

Oh my...
Well, from your first post I just assumed you changed the timing belt as a scheduled maintenance. Not that it broke or anything.
