I see that #42 cam's were tin coated and #49 cam's are chilled cast iron. I'm guessing that MB might have detected a defective manufacturing process and changed along the way to extend the life of the cam's.
My second cam wore out different lobes than the first cam, so I'm guessing that it's not my oil tree.

Have you considered that you may have a problem with the cam journals in the head...
Wear, runout or alignment can cause excessive wear on one or more cam lobes.
