There are some small imperfections (nicks) on the surface on the end of the camshaft where the points seal runs.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to do a repair to get a good surface back on the camshaft.
Normally I would try this with a seal, but if it doesn't work and leaks oil into the points housing it means I have to pull the engine out of the frame and split the crankcase to replace the camshaft.
Can a thin sleeve be fitted over this area to replenish the surface so the seal will have a good life.
Thanks
