No cam bearings in a 400F Dave, just the alloy.

Ah thats my bad dave, I'm still new to the terminology!
Cheers sweetpeauk, thats a big help! I'll give him a call and mention you recommended him.
I started looking at my cush rubbers earlier and they don't look to good either, I've tried removing one, but bloody hell there in there! How on earth do you go about removing the damn things? Theres no way to push them out the back.
I've drilled the rubber out of one and managed to release the inner part but the outer part is so thin and stuck to the hub. I read a post on hear about removing them, but wondered if anyone else has tried this and what method they used?
Back to the crankcase for now, and I'll check those pistons while i'm at it.
Oh and I managed to get a picture of the scoring in the second cylinder bore.

How does that work? I am confused

If you are splitting the cases I have the clutch hub nut tool and a basket holding tool if you need help.

Saisei, I know it seems strange just to rely on the head itself as a bearing, as now its this badly scored it seems the only option is a replacement head, or at least that's what the clymer manual says.
That would be a massive help sweetpea, thank you! I'll take all the advice and help I can get.
I'm going to have a play removing a few more parts tomorrow, then should be up to that point.
Where are you based?
Feel free to PM me and we'll arrange something between us.
I had an awful time trying to remove the cush rubbers this evening, I know my limits and think I might have to take them somewhere to be removed, I don't want to damage the hubs.
