I've managed to conduct valve clearance jobs on numerous bikes without a problem but I managed to booger this one up.
I went to reinstall the cam towers to recheck my clearances since the exhausts were running tight but in the midst of torquing the bolts, the dowels got cocked and scrunched.
The holes in the cylinder head are pretty marred and the towers are crushed. Intake is fine.

Something tells me the proper way to fix this would be to remove the head and have a shop ream the holes for a proper fit.
