Rub your finger over it, is it ruff???
Are you sure the bearing was not made like that???
Was the motor making any noise before it was torn down???
I have had bearings that were made like that with a little section
missing right around the oil hole. I have also seen some folks modify them
like that, to try to get a little more oil in there.
If it is smooth and is a tight fit when the cams is in there. I would leave it alone.

Sorry for your loss of friend Mike McGee, Shine. Great trans men are few and far between, it seems. Sadly, Mike Frade was only 66 and had been talking about retirement for ten years that I know...
