So: you'll be lucky if alien frame will fit cylinder head (concentric camshafts holes).
Look for picture - cylinder head and frame have been marked violet triangle (left upper picture corner) and appear on the list as one part with number 1701871.

Try check which one hole is nonconcentric and use (very carefully) adjustable reamer. It isn't best solution. Best is very expensive - new set 1701871, no chance for used, good, trusted set from ebay.

Both camshafts should be able to turn by HAND with just a bit of force and should have a smooth and equal friction all around . Have a good look at the cam carrier with camshafts removed to see if there is a scored or broken surface on either carrier and camshafts . Unusual for the exhaust side to go wrong if timing chain jumped . It is mainly the inlet side that is mostly damaged .
