Looking at it more today, I centered the lobes under the lifter bores and the cam would need to move about 3/8" rearward to allow the bearing to contact the block. I'm thinking the boss maybe was cut back to accommodate this and not need a bearing.
Going to make some phone calls tomorrow and find out.
