4.6is vanos bolts came loose

Okay this ones perplexing. We did a vanos seal rebuild on my 4.6is put the engine back together, timed just fine went to start fired right up and shut off shortly there after. Something with timing is the thought. pull of front upper timing covers to find that both bank 1 and bank 2 vanos bolts have come loose. How can this be? Has anyone run into this on the M62 engine? This is such an oddball. Would appreciate insight from those that may have experienced this situation?
