You will not harm anything by turning the cam while the crank stays still. Cam rotation will be anti-clockwise when viewed from the front.

Thanks for your guidance
The Wrench did not arrive today, Saturday....
Usually Bratton's is pretty fast
Well, I am sure it will arrive Monday, then I will work on removing the timing gear, and then carefully checking if the cam spins..
I will not try to force anything....
Something I learned that from repairing watches.
In watchmaking, the tools are small, not only because the parts are small
but because this restricts the force you can employ. Finger pressure and hand strength only.
