I found this discussion and video about the inline 6 cylinder 3.0 liter Duramax diesel. Scroll through the discussion and locate the video.
2020 Chevrolet Silverado Duramax Turbo Diesel – A Record Setting 33 mpg Highway Rating! (at http://www.cleanmpg.com/community/index.php?threads/56410/ )
It is just amazing some of the designs that engineers put forth. On this engine the overhead cam is driven by a chain drive system from the rear of the engine. You drop the transmission and remove the flywheel to gain access. The engine oil pump is BELT driven from the rear of the crankshaft. At time interval 3:10 the presenter indicates that if the belt fails, an appropriate diagnostic message will appear and you will have ample time to stop the engine due to lack of oil pressure.
This is about as insane as the VM Motori designing the 3.0 liter ecodiesel V6 engine with camshaft sprockets NOT KEYED to the camshaft. Sprockets are just a friction fit and expected not to slip, get out of time and trash the valves against the pistons.
