Have just fitted new top camchain idler wheel assembly, come to check cam timing as per manual, and its massively way out! Not just an odd tooth, but nearly half a cam sprocket's worth?? Ran great beforehand?

it should look like this ? look at the cutaways in the end of the camshafts half of the cutaway should be below the cylinder head / cam cover mating surface when it is bang on

how can the tensioner wheel adjust or change the cam timing other than by a very small amount , surely its top dead, fit the cams the right way as per book and count the links after that fit the tensioner , if its out by a tooth or more then the cams wer set in the wrong position relative to tdc ?

Your correct, all sorted now, thanks!
