During a rebuild of the top end we have found various problems with the bike which we have fixed one by one. Now we've got to the stage where we are reassembling the camshaft etc. The Haynes Manual asks us to replace two dowels (small hollow metal tubes) at the end of the camshaft. Now, they weren't there when we took it apart (one or two other bits weren't right or were missing as well). The recesses are drilled in the right place but the Honda parts system does not list these parts or illustrate them.They look as if they are supposed to just sit vertically preventing camshaft sideways movement. So should we have them or not?

As far as the Honda system is concerned they may be integral to the cam, and not sold as stand-alone parts.

Correct-ish! We've found them on the list of camshaft parts (not cylinder head parts). Previous owner has not put all the bits back on so it's a bit of a detective story so far. Thanks.
