3.4L_V6_2000

I am working on a 2000 3.4L V6 SR5 4Runner.
I am re-installing my timing belt after just installing a new oil pump. During the dis-assembly process, in order to loosen the crankshaft pulley bolt, I had to rotate the crankshaft independent of the cam shafts with the timing belt off. Now, as I am trying to put the timing belt back on, the right camshaft sprocket is only at ten o'clock when the left camshaft is at 12 o'clock with the crankshaft.
HOW DO I TURN THE RIGHT CAMSHAFT 45 DEGREES CLOCKWISE WITHOUT MOVING THE CRANKSHAFT AND THE LEFT CAMSHAFT?
The spark plugs are out and I thought it would turn freely but it doesn't.
