Cam Bearing? The little circles almost look like the spacers behind the spring in the oil pump.But its been a long time since I had a BB pump apart.
None of which explains the water in the oil.Most likely this damage was caused by the water in the oil.Sorry but I think you need a complete tear down.

Unfortunately I think we have a winner. The upper end appears intact, compression is good so the news is bad. If I get time this weekend, I'll dig further into it & let you know what I find.

Thanks again for the responses.

The small round pieces appear to be oil metering discs from a hydraulic lifter/lifters. The other stuff looks like bearing material.

I would tend to agree on the metering discs, however he didn't mention anything about lifter failure.
