Actually, the crank dog is on the end of the crankshaft, not the camshaft.
Every Series truck came with a handcrank when new. There are two clips for it on the front side of the bulkhead behind the seats. There are several threads on here about using the crank. I used mine every morning for many winters, until I finally fixed the leaky rear mainseal. I've said it before, I'll say it again; ALWAYS pull up when cranking, not push down. The crank will go in in one of two positions. You want to come up on compression while pulling, so that it won't fly back and break a few knuckles.
