opinions on the cam condition

Who cut the journals? That's diverting oil from the journal and into the SIDE of maybe one lifter/lobe and then into the crank below.

It's a test fit camshaft that we use when installing new cam bearings. Reliefs purposely cut, gives any cam bearing burs a place to go as you are doing the fitting process.

After it fits nice, then you take it out and install the permanent new camshaft.
