Don't worry about taking the engine apart just pull it apart.
For ease of install turn the crank to where the keyway is at 9 oclock. Then install the heads, followers, lash adjusters then bolt the cams in making sure the keyways point towards the crank. That will get you close enough to put the chains on. When installing the chains do not turn the crank only turn the cams to get the marks to line up.

You can rotate the motor around so yo can pop all the cam followers off then all the springs will be keeping everything closed. So no matter where the crank is you can take the chains off and spin the cam all you want, it wont move the valves.

Oh alrighty. Now not to sound like a complete idiot, but can you explain the purpose of marking the chain/folding it in half. I'm just trying to know everything about what I am doing..

It's so you know which link of the chain goes to which tooth on the cam gears. You'll see little dots machined into the gears to mark which tooth the marked chain goes on. The chain should have two links, one at each end, that's a different color than the rest. If the color has worn off, that's when you fold it and basically make new marked links.
