Default Efi cams on Mfi

Does anyone know if the Efi cams will fit in place of the Mfi ones?
I've read somewhere that they are made from better material and dont wear as quickly as the Mfi ones?

I stick by my views on this, ive never had a new cam in my hands but i refuse to believe all the second hand engines i have dismantled have had cam shafts replaced with original Ford MFI cams.

Get Ford to order one in, and if it doesnt have the slot (which i am adoment it will), but if it doesnt tell them they have got it wrong and run out
