The cam looks as-new; no scoring or visible wear.

What concerns me is that in the MBZ service manual it indicates that a hardened cam should be installed with the hardened followers. If I install the hardened followers, is it going to ruin my early cam in a matter of weeks? Are the old-style, softer followers available any more?
