Default I m having head and block problems

I have a
Volvo
S80
2.9L

I took out the head and block in order to clean the pistons but when I was putting back the block and head, I forgot what was the right position of the camshaft. Would someone please show me the right position of the camshaft?

Did you lock the cams like you were supposed to before removing them?

No, the camshaft and crankshaft are loose. They are out of their position. I dont really know what their positions are.

You will have to be able to lock the cams into the proper position with the tool before you will be able to reset the proper position.

Tech thanks a lot for the help, I really appreciate your help. But How can I lock the cams to a proper position? And what kind of tool do I need?
