Is this what you are looking for?

Go to "How To", then "Install Cam Bearings"

Make sure when you put the bearings in you line up the holes with the oil galleries :D

And be careful with the front one- check the old bearing's various hole positions before you push it out.

Sorry no I don't, nor do I have a block (with the bearing in) handy right now.
But if you get it wrong (backwards?) you can get full pressure feed to the rocker gear, not the correct intermittent pulses from the axial groove on the cam journal.

Been there! Local machine shop put the bearing in the wrong way, it was fine until you held constant high revs for a length of time, then I had oil comming out the rocker cover and filling the catch tank.
