1) triple cam actually
2) Doesn't matter, any hole's a goal
3) I think the question you really meant to ask was: How does Paper beat Rock in scissor paper rock? Logically, Rock flies right through Paper. Don't worry, it bothers me too

1) double, there are a total of 4 cams as it is a V6. If you open your bonnet and have a look underneath, it says DOHC (Double Over Head Cams) on the motor.
2) umm, this question doesn't really make sense. If there was any open holes it would leak oil. There are places for screws and what not but the quantity is completely irrelevant.
3) metal.
These are very odd questions. What kind of parts are you looking to purchase?

I think he means valve cover gasket.
To which the answer is rubber.
Paper or cork as it's more commonly referred gaskets on the valve covers are from much older vehicles.
edit: and oh, fkn lol Sooty.
