Trance's all motor disaster

Re: Trance's all motor disaster
Well guy's I guess I can't go after Zex for it breaking. I ripped the valvetrain appart on the head and everything appeared to be well oiled. But, the middle cam cap and journal was all scored up. The others were fine. So I'm wondering if possibly one of the oil gallery's is blocked preventing any oil getting to the middle cam cap/cam journal. Maybe it seized up and thats what caused the end of the camshaft to break.
Here's some pics.
This is the rocker arm assembly. Where I'm pointing is the scored up areas.

This is the cam Journal. it too is all scored up. Notice the oil gallery plug that sends oil through the rocker assembly. I wonder if somewhere it's plugged up.

Any opinions on what I should do? I'm probably going to put the cam back in and plastiguage everything to see if this head is junk now
