    Looks like incorrect tightening sequence of the cam frame is the cause of the problem. Also notice if they used to much sealant between head and cam frame. Can also cause uneven tension and the frame will break.
     If the broken off pieces has fallen into the engine the head and oil pan needs to be taken off for inspection.

    Look at the top left side of the picture. They cut the bracket for the DPF to gain easy access for the cam frame. Find another repair shop!
