Boy, those don't look like wear problems, look like a ham-handed cam install.....

Well, then it was the factory. I do see others with the same weird marks.
https://dodgeforum.com/forum/2nd-gen-ram-tech/319592-removing-cam-bearing.htmlI am wondering if this could be related to my burnt exhaust valve issue. I haven't removed the valve yet (got new casting heads from Jegs), but it looks like a chunk of the back side of the valve or seat is gone. Maybe this got thrown through the engine?
The builder I used for my 383 is swamped with work for about 8 weeks. I may attempt to do this myself and inspect all other bearing surfaces as well.
