I have the hardest time getting that thing lined up and fit between in the right spots with all the angles on it that need to line up.

I've put it on the cover first and then tried to flip it over to install but it falls off. I've also tried laying it on the head and putting the cover on but it slips all over the place.

Tonight i need to replace that bracket for the camshaft I broke and I'll have to deal with it again.

How do you guys do it? Any tips or tricks? For some reason this is really tricky for me.
