it directly drips oil on the cams lobes

And what, the oil dripping through those great big windows in the valley don't hit the lobes ?!?!?!?

Oh no, without the holes oil will indeed spill over those big windows as you suggest. But where, maybe in just a few centralized spots. Not directly on every lobe. Hence the reason I used the word directly.

Now I didnt drill the holes around my lifters, they were already there. For my purposes I like them.

And For Daves purpose, I can see why he would want zero oil spilling into the reciprocating mass. For me, Im keeping my direct feed drip holes. Even though they may have no absolute benifit

With all the flat tappet cam lobe wipeouts we here about, I want all the lube I can dripping on them at idle and cruise.
