Your car also has a Variable Inertia Charging (VICS) Solenoid valve which is located close to the VTCS. Perhaps the dealer is confusing the two. I've checked all of my sources and only see the VTCS as being on right side of the intake manifold. However the VICS is located more centrally on the intake manifold.

Therefore, if I'm wrong and the dealer is wrong, there is a possibility that your engine is the Japanese version. Have the dealer to check the VIN number to be sure or check the engine number located on the side of the block.
