JOhnno, Make sure to turn it over by hand, first,( spark plugs out) to not tempt Murphy into testing how many valves he can bend against the pistons ( interference due to mis-timed cam).
Merry Christmas.

THat would probably be pieces of the timing chain guides which all need to be R&R'd while you're in there. I don't believe your initiall assessment. Ask your NIssan Forum buds about any TSB's/ recalls for it for your model and year. To top it off, all the bits and pieces you are talking about doesn't make me feel too happy about your oil pump and galleries that Murphy has clogged/will clog again- just waiting for you to put it all back togetther to start up- all those bits and pieces you missed will recirculate and clog galleries and bearing shells in new places like rod/crank bearings, cams, hydraulic chain tensioner, oil pump.. It's funny, when I pulled the sump cover, I found lots of little bits and broken pieces that must have went wrong. Maybe when I pull the head I'll find out what they were.
.... will continue
For the price of all parts you will be replacing, headache of labor, new headaches when it all goes back together, newer headaches when you try to drive it any distance -you could get something running@ auction...

Nano, schmano, I'm sure they work ......wear a big straw hat and pour water inside it, periodically.... 30% of your blood flow goes to your head.
Water and sweat has been cooling bodies for a kabillion years.
This new shirt doesn't do anything new.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family, Johnno. Kudos to those that have pledged their help where it counts.
...............................................................................................................................................................................................................
I'm usually quite shy about expressing my feelings in these matters and have struggled to... well just struggled during similar more personal experiences in the past.
ANyway, I searched for an appropriate prayer.
Here is where I landed:
http://usinfo.org/re...ches/prayer.htm
...............................................................................................................................................................................................................
Build me a son, O Lord, who will be strong enough to know when he is weak, and brave enough to face himself when he is afraid; one who will be proud and unbending in honest defeat, and humble and gentle in victory.
Build me a son whose wishbone will not be where his backbone should be; a son who will know Thee ?and that to know himself is the foundation stone of knowledge.
Lead him I pray, not in the path of ease and comfort, but under the stress and spur of difficulties and challenge. Here let him learn to stand up in the storm; here let him learn compassion for those who fail.
Build me a son whose heart will be clear, whose goal will be high; a son who will master himself before he seeks to master other men; one who will learn to laugh, yet never forget how to weep; one who will reach into the future, yet never forget the past.
And after all these things are his, add, I pray, enough of a sense of humor, so that he may always be serious, yet never take himself too seriously. Give him humility, so that he may always remember the simplicity of true greatness, the open mind of true wisdom, the meekness of true strength.
Then, I, his father, will dare to whisper, have not lived in vain.

In this case, the" cobbleite" is redundant and subordinate to "Leaverite"( the more omnipresent 'descriptive')It has been a running joke in my household for the last couple of days too.... "Leaverite Streamataceous Cobbleite" I love it.....
As such, the proper nomenclature should read, " Streamataceous Leaverite var." cobbleite"
Thankyou, GOldfinger for the correction.
