May I ask a novice question?

The only cam shafts I've ever seen came out of sbc iron motors from antiquity. I used to hear mechanics refer to something called "leoparding". Those tiny black spots on the cam lobe pictured are normal or is that what those guys were talking about?

TIA

I could see that happening.....bummer, but it did make a nice glory hole!
