What wears camshafts like this ?
Does not the nut that holds the cam gear cover it?
Thank you Larry
Larry, This damage was caused by the camshaft felt seal retaining plate or so called 3222 timer shield. It doesn't hurt anything but it looks nasty. Just replace the felt with a neoprene press in seal and throw the shield plate away.
Thanks Glen,.It does look nasty, im blad it has no effect on camshaft
I will us a modern seal
