    The marks will be where it needs to sit for whatever timing the cam is good for. Will be a case of lining it up with the new markings instead of the std one when installing it. Like a sort of fixed version of adjusting the pully/timing.

    Can any one tell me what the standard markings are on the standard cam? This one has 270 and a few other numbers on it!

    All standard cams and updated cams have 270 stamped on the shaft side, after market cams will have small numbers stamped on the end of the cams face.

    Can anyone explain the timing marks and can they tell how far from the original it is?

    All the numbers on the sides are nothing just Renault ref numbers,if its uprated cam the numbers or letters on the end face are what the cams is, or get a vernier and measure the lift and compare it to the cam wizard.
