Aside from the debris on the cam does this look ok to reuse? Its coming out of a 95 motor, and going into a 93 block (I didnt want to try to use a 93-94 opti on my 95). Thanks in advanced.

In your third picture down look at the wear groove in the bearing journal and what appears to be pits also.

just go to you're local parts store that offers flywheel resurfacing..they have tools to remove dowel pins easily (usually from flywheels)...they might do it for you for nothing...
