Pretty sure the inlet cam is different the the exhaust cam. Think one is longer than the other as well?

Do you have a Haynes manual to hand? Not sure if it gives details on cam profiles in there?

Aaah, in that case there must surely be either two part numbers you can contact your local dealer about and they can tell you whether its inlet or exhaust, or if you check the cams there might be an 'ex' or something stamped on?
