You only need to worry about the tool sitting perfect before you fully tighten the exh cam gear. That is why there are 2 access holes in the vanos unit on the exh side... so you can have it all bolted up set the timing and tighten the exh cam gear.
The more I think about your tool the more I think you may be better off with the cam blocks.
