Personally, No mate.
If it nips up, the cam will probably snap clean in half.

You cant really machine the cam as the cam caps will no longer be any use mate as they are oversize to the cam journals.

bearing surfaces should be SMOOTH
Although some inlet have a groove machined dead in the centre to help oil flow and for identification I believe
Wait to get corrected now
