Thanks guys. I'll pop the plug out. Knock it out from inside the engine or knock it "in" from outside?
If knocking it out from inside can I use the camshaft as a punch?
It sure looks like bearing is spun but we will see. Not sure what best case scenario is lol
Cam turns nice n smooth. Just hits a "stop" when trying to remove from front.
Lifters were nice n smooth. Took few "in n outs" to get a few of them out.
Pan coming off after I remove rounded head bolt.
Thanks again guys much appreciated!
Remove the rear "cup plug" in the block and bang it out from the rear....

Put the front bolt in and use a dent puller....

See if you can get it to rotate first, then it won't be so hard to bang out....

Pop out the rear plug to see if it is cam bearing that has pulled out. Then just tap on it. I see varnish rings on the bottom's of the lifters and it may just have a varnish ring on the back s of some cam journals that is hanging it in there. (You would not believe how hard /6 lifters can be to get out of their bores due to varnish rings; it often is hammer time....)

If the rear bearing really has pulled out, I'd go from underneath with a grinder and grind a slot in the bearing to release it from the rear cam journal. But you'd have to pull the crank and rear pistons. And then you have to see if that rear cam bearing spun in the bearing bore; it might not be fixable.

Are you sure it is hanging on a bearing, or just has dropped down and is hanging up on a lobe?
