I had this problem in my 380SL when I bought it, but it was so bad it was a bang. The cam was shot, and many of the followers had visible concavities. I think a big contributing factor to this problem was the oiler tube - it literally lifted off of the cam towers.



Was this the RH (passenger) side?
