I think the problem with this engine is in only has one cam sensor. A waveform may not show the problem. An in cylinder pressure transducer test would give better results, if you have a pressure transducer set. Test one cylinder on each bank and it will confirm a cam timing issue on the one bank. At this age I will say it's due for a complete timing chain set, oil pan clean out and a new High…

Isn't the cam sensor in the driver's side head? 5,6,7,8 I agree with glenn… but maybe an exhaust restriction is causing this, one bank Mode 6 data can confirm misfires

I’d start with a back pressure test. The rich bank usually has a blocked cat

Anselmo; Good morning Sir, I hope all is well. I'm attaching a URL to a video put together by Bernie Thompson and the team at ATS, youtu​.​be/krrizI4fwkE Using Fuel Trims during a test drive should help you diagnose the vehicle, especially if its a plugged catalyst. I hope this helps,

Don't forget the possibility of a lying 02 sensor.
