Cam install question - HELP!

I will look at the #1 and #5 bearings more closely and address the shiny spots - I like the lapping compound idea but not sure how it wouldn't just get pushed out - don't like the idea of scoring the journals though

I did clean the cam well and also tried it backwards. Going to take the block off the stand and the cam backwards in #5 since I haven't installed the plugs yet.

My concern was that perhaps the cam was bent...

All good input fellas, thanks!
