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.

(I have the torque specs for the valve covers), just can't seem to find anything on the front timing chain cover as far as bolt torque.
