You need to learn how to search then. The search works just fine.
It's a DOHC. That means it's got DUAL OVERHEAD CAMS. The CAMS ARE UNDER THE VALVE COVER.

They are connected to a chain also under the valve cover.

Enjoy.

Yup, There is one driving gear (that you see) which is connected to the exhaust cam. On the other side of the cam, there is a sprocket. The Intake cam is driven by chain connected to the exhaust cam.
