1st once has to do with the cam.. I forgot like a dumbass and didnt see anything aying around the bench.. On the cam cap that goes between the gear and the block and holds the cammin place is there suppose to be a washer or thrust bearing or anything along those lines between the cam and this cap ?

2nd on the crank key that holds the lower timing gear in place... I recieved a new one from the machine shop but it doesnt fit. Should I try to hammer it into place(Let me gues no lol) or should I file it down to fit properly. I know its soft metal so was just wondering if any one had gotten by from trying to tap the gear n forcing the key to falll into place?

There is no bearing or thrust washer on the cam thrust plate. As for the key, it usually takes a few gentle taps to install it.
