Wear can cause axial movement of the camshaft.
Remove the camshaft bearing bridge according to the repair manual. Check the camshaft side of the bearing bridge for damage (groove in bearing surface or lip protruding from the bearing surface). If damaged, replace the bearing bridge. Be sure to change the engine oil and filter after repairs.
