Usually camshaft caps are line bored to the head they are on so not transferable!

You can get a secondhand one and measure the clearance with Plastigauge. Use one of the other bearings as a reference for the Plastigauge clearance value.

Does anyone know if the cam caps are the same on the left head and the right head as I've been offered a right side head cheap for the caps but mine is the left looking from driver seat
