For the cam flange holder bolts it says to put engine oil on the threads and seating surface.
For the sprocket bolts it says apply a locking agent. Book says use medium strength unless otherwise specified. Nothing specified so use medium.
It also shows/says the flange holders must be loosened and tightened in a several steps in a crisscross pattern from outside to inside or they may break. And do not forcibly remove the dowel pins from the camshaft holders.
