2011 5.0 F150 all driver side cylinders dead

I have yet to work on one of these. Went out on location to check it out for my friend. Runs horrible, every cylinder kn that side is dead. Did not have compression gauge but im confident its not dead from compression. Had two codes for bank A and bank B cam sensors.
Superior told him it needed a new motor. He just wanted me to look at it to verify. Sounds to me like the timing components are bad on that head. Any clue?

Damn. I'm no mechanic, but how many miles does he have on the truck? Guessing his warranty is up...

110,000 miles.
I changed the oil. Dumped a can of Seafoam and ran it for about 15 minutes then drained and changed oil and filter. His dash shows no oil pressure and is giving a warning. I checked the valve cover and the oil is getting up there so im hoping that its just a bad oil pressure send in unit.
cleaned the MAF, and the very dirty throttle body. Damn thing had a 1/8" thick layer of carbon on the back Side of the throttle blade.

What's the compression showing?

I know you're trying to help but did you even read the OP?

Wtf
That makes no sense. Backfiring? How else would it get there?

Are the plugs firing on that side?

The timing chain is broken. It has more than one chain because of the multiple can shaft set up. There is a chain guide that is about 6" long that the chain uses to keep in place. I recently looked at a cutaway Ford engine at a race and mentioned that this looks like a major problem in their design. I think it is some type of plastic.

Damn 110K on a 2011? That's steep.

Take it to AGCO!!

Well, this is good news. All 5.0 motors are non interference. Im going to pull the valve cover Monday and take a look. Should be a simple fix.
