Default VAFC Malfunction?

A freind of mine works as an automotive technician with a guy who used to be the master tech at a local performance shop, they were talking about what could have caused my intake and only my intake cam to jump 180º(described in more detail in my " Origional Thread ").

The idea that they came up with, is that my vafc malfunctioned when i was starting the car locking the rocker arms and preventing my cam from moving, pushing the belt over the cam, then when I went to start the car again it turned and pushed my valves down on the cylinder coming up. I don't really see how it would have worked, also heard it second hand from my freinds freind but it makes a little since...its about the only theory thats beliveable to put my intake cam exactly 180º opposite my exhaust cam, with the crank at tdc.

Has anyone ever heard of a vafc malfunctioning like this or, anyother examples of where just one cam decided to skipped time?
