I just got finished doing the timing case gasket. While performing valve lash the engine at TDC the second time meaning

intake 3,5,6
Exhaust 2,4,6

are to be adjusted the problem I’m running into is the exhaust on 3 is also closed like it would be adjusted and the exhaust valves start to open when the crank is turned to the point the TDC mark is is inline with the cam center.
When I installed the came I made sure the engine was at tdc and the 0 is between the 00 on the came gear.
Is this normal?
