The cam chain must make a pretty sharp bend over the top to get to the cams, but thats fine. I don't see where the jack shaft gets driven from, nothing on the front looks like its hiding another drive, so I guess they fit it inside. Pretty neat packaging job.

It looks like the Maserati V6's timing chains don't run down into the block between cylinders as I'd thought previously. See http://www.eurospares.co.uk/maserati/engine_blocks/MEB_001.jpg. So they don't actually add any length to the engine. Clever.
