He took the Kent Cams out and sold them, everybody that's owned it since has held on to that power readout as gospel, then they realise it hasn't got Kent Cams in it and sell it Yes

Plus the sooner they sell it, the more likely the eBay ad they bought it through is to be still viewable, so they can back up the claims that it has hotter cams when the next owner kicks up a fuss.

How can u tell if the cams are standared or not by lookin through the filler without takin them out andmeasuring them?

The standard ones are cast, then machined. Some aftermarket ones are machined from billet, so just by looking at them you can at least tell whether they're OEM or not.

To me theres no chance it is 194hp without having a big secret.
I can see three outcomes
A Its 167hp but ok
B its 194 but has some serious issue.
C its 167 and a bit of a tip

Also standard ones have two lines slapped on them poorly in paint on the inlet just below the filler

Lovely car that! Am I missing something though? It was 194bhp with the cams, the cams are now removed so was the buyer just told it was 194 still? Even though it was the cams that made the difference?

When I last saw tic tac in Milton Keynes the owner said he had trouble keeping up with a 325i so he either can't drive or the car is fooked.

My thoughts are the latter.
