Timing incorrect while doing chain

I replaced the whole timing kit, cam gears, guides, sec. And primary tensioner, secondary chains and primary chains thought I had everything lined up and torqued everything down and pulled the pin on the tensioner’s and started turning the crankshaft, but turns out bank 1 cam gear is out of line by a little bit how would I put it back in time?

I don't see any issue here, both banks seem aligned. Count the links back from the pink link and it's 5 on both. Scared to blow it up? Pull the plugs out and rotate by hand few times. No bind, no problem. If your engine ran fine before you popped the timing cover, then it should be just fine. Assuming you didn't disturb the cam sprockets in any way..
Also keep in mind that this engine has variable timing on the cams so they won't be exactly on the marks. My VQ35HR was off by a 1/4" on bank 1 (passenger side) when i replaced my timing parts and it runs just fine..

yes very scared to blow it up lol I’ve never done anything like this, (closest to it is probably upper oil pan) and I did pull plugs and rotate that’s when they didn’t like up right again, gonna take it apart and do it again thank you for the response

All the marks will only line up once every many turns, some say 41 engine revolutions, but I think it’s much more than that. So if everything was lined up perfectly and then you rotated the engine once then yes all the marks will be off.
