To align the cams in a 1996 Toyota Camry, first be sure the number one piston is at the top dead center position. After this is put into place, the lower timing cover and the crankshaft pulley should have a temporary notch that is lined up with the zero mark on the timing cover. A small hole in the crankshaft gear should be pointing straight up and lining up with a mark on the front cam bearing housing. There should be no slack in the timing belt, and the engine should then be rotated a few times by hand to make sure that the marks are still aligned.

Timing chain 2000 Toyota?

I just replaced the timing chain for my 2000 Camry. I did the same thing for my last Camry, a 1996. The timing chain goes after the water pump bearings fail and jams everything up. Then I had to replace the timing belt, water pump, and all belts.
