Makes sense they could be a cause of noise.

I don't think you can "visually" detect all of the cam wear. You need to run your fingernail across the lob to feel for a dip or other non uniform wear. Had the same problem on a Land Rover with the lobs wearing and causing ticking sounds. Replaced the cam and lifters as a set.
