I was unable to find bolt pattern and torque specs with torque sequence for 5.0L non-supercharged Jaguar engine, the only repair manual I found was through Haynes in the UK and won't to the USA.

Good morning and thanks for that info. But the question I have was in search of the torque specs for the bolts on the Jaguar 5.0L engine front timing chain cover, I that valve is between 9 and 10 (N 'm) in pattern.
