x2 - two lobes gone and all that metal went through the engine. No way to get it all out for sure without pulling it completely apart. Not saying they didn't do anything wrong, but it's going to be next to impossible to get them to accept responsibility if this is actually the case. I really can't believe they agreed to do the work and NOT pull it apart.

What's the rest of the story - starting with the original cam going flat?
