Since it looks like you found a cam, is it ok if I move this into the "Things with Spark Plugs" section for the tech?
Yea go ahead Tom. I would buy one from someone for cheap still.

I checked all of them and they are still great shape. Holds the lifters as intended. The two I've done were both like this one. No evidence of the lifter turning sideways or roller frozen. But yet the cam lobe wore off.. ..

I wonder if its a an issue with maintenance.
People are going 5k-10k miles between oil changes in these things.
And we know some have had oil consumption issues
I know some of the ones I have dealt with that had spun cam bearings, They were run low on oil.
They typical response is: "I always get my oil changed when the the light comes on and tells me its time."
When you ask about mileage between service they always say they dont know they just go by the service light...

LS in general eat them. Guy down the road had a 2015 half ton / 5.3 with under 40K miles crap a couple lifters
Half tons have afm. Their complex lifters are notorious for going bad, causing misfiring. But they dont typically eat cams in that scenario

Only trouble we've had with the LT so far is a bad variable oil pump, and a leaking hi pressure fuel pump.
