A cylinder head structure for a V-type engine comprising a pair of cylinder head members which are the same in shape and oriented in opposite directions and which are provided in each of the front and rear end wall portions with an opening. Camshafts are supported for rotation in the respective cylinder head members so that their respective one ends project outside through the openings on the same end of the engine. A cam pulley is mounted on the projecting portion of each cam shaft, and a transmission belt is provided for transmitting the driving force of the crankshaft to the cam pulley on each camshaft. A pair of first cover members are mounted on the end wall portions of the respective cylinder head members through which the camshafts project to form closed cross section spaces together with the corresponding cylinder head members for covering the transmission belt. Second cover members are mounted on the end wall portions of the respective cylinder heads opposite to the end wall portions through which the camshafts project to cover the openings therein.
