sounds like some lifter pieces, they sure would not get pumped up there through the engine. Sounds like you need some other things done before you worry about where your cam is. Post pics.

My concern would be Metal Circulation through the whole engine. Believe me it won't last as this has destroyed many an engine, been there and experienced it personally. Same with the oil cooler in the radiator, not flushable. I'd pull the engine and go through it completely, flushing all the oil galleys, replace the in rad cooler. Engine set up is critical to longevity as well as performance. I'm only offering some tried procedures that worked for me in the past and not trying to sound too negative. MHO Gene
