Most of the diesels likely "wobble" on shut down backwards a bit. I can feel the rocking of the engine moving back a bit when shutting it off....but I bet any significant amount of reversing the engine would = bad things.

turning most engines backwards is just plain retarded and asking for trouble.

I am not sure why Camshaft was specified on the tooth slip...
when I look at the route the chain takes I think the main problem is the probability of the injection timing tooth /chain relationship getting off..... than the cam tooth.
