I'm not sure, since I can't get the retaining bolt out, but the Sprocket on the VVT unit appears not to have a key for alignment. Is this correct? If Must remove the sprocket, is it left of right hand thread?

See pic for explanation it is run by oil pressure the last pic is to remove timing chain but should be partially done for solenoid. They are rh thread and may have Loctite on them. Cams must e locked in position for removal.
