PS i am in the same the same boat in a way, both a reman near two years ago, and with frame repairs, a body patch etc etc, its about ready to fire.
As I had to put the intake and front covers on the reman, i made sure it was on #1 TDC. at TDC the cam marks line up.
I assume YOU did not set the cams but the reman shop did>? They should have, and also set lash correctly.
THis happened once to my son in his Hilux. Buried the truck in water. It froze. WHen we cranked the engine over, somehow the timing belt slipped a few teeth. Took us a while to figure out why it wouldnt start until we pulled the timing cover and rolled it over to #1 TDC and saw the cam marks off.
Somehow ice formed over the lower pulley and kept the belt from spinning for half a rev or so.

Pardon the super late response. That's a wild story, he must have really submerged it. That must've been great to finally figure out. How did it end up witih your rebuild?
No I didn't need to set the cams, Yota1 did the rebuild and they do basically complete engines including valve covers. I suspected the timing for a while but cams and crankshaft were perfectly lined up. My no-start problem ended up being dumb, I had crossed 2 of the wires coming from the tops of the coil packs. Really glad I found it eventually. Also the place that rebuilt my injectors had a 3 year warranty so that's all good now
My main thing now is wondering why there is smoke coming from the oil dipstick and passenger side exhaust. Oil level is on lower dot so when my quart of break in oil arrives I'm hoping adding more will solve that
