semper ubi sub ubi
Hoping to turn the corner on my 2F refresh. All is going well, but I noticed the cam bearings weren't lining-up with the oil holes in the block. Of the three I could see/photo, two are sort of aligned, and one doesn't seem to be at all:
(the dark part is engine paint that missed, not a burn mark)
I'm putting-in new crank main and conn rod bearings, but was really hoping to leave the cam bearings be, as I've (so far) avoided taking anything to the machine shop. Still, the FSM says to make sure to line up the holes when installing new bearings. The motor has been rebuilt (not sure when), and everything else looks good, but either the cam bearings were installed incorrectly, or they're starting to spin?
I'd really appreciate any thoughts.
