You've probably got the answer but here's a
way.
Make a "slightly wedge shaped" block of soft wood,
10cm long with a hole drilled across it near the top. Insert this down
the front of the engine between the cam chain. Tap it lightly on top to jam the
chain against the chain guides. Now you can remove the cam chain
sprocket nut and slide the cam out of the towers.
Leave the jamming block in place until reassemble. This stops the cam chain
tensioned from moving until the chain is reinstalled on the cam sprocket.
When the cam drive sprocket is reinstalled with the cam chain on
it, lift the block out using a hook through the hole you drilled near the top of
the jamming block.
If you dont jam the cam chain at its lower end, the
tensioner takes up the slack and most types cannot be reversed without removing
the timing case. If the tensioner moves out it will make reinstalling
the cam chain impossible with out taking of the timing cover to reset
it.
