I see that all the time on engines that come through the shop where the plating has come off of the steel backing on the cam bearings. Chevrolet, Ford, AMC etc they all do that from time to time. I don't think that it is necessarily caused by mechanical factors I think that it might just be caused by the presence of moisture inside of the engine over time.
