the cam is still in the head. you dont need to remove it like a B-series head... so, whats that mean? good chance that the cam is gonna be holding some valves open....

head is probably fine...

yuppers.. wipe those valve faces down with a clean rag too. looks like the one has a slight chip on it but clean it up and that will tell you

So what's the problem here?

Valves open and close. That's how they work....
