hrdman2luv. the weight is designed that way. Have seen several over the years. The newer ones are more square. Sometimes that compression release issue isn't obvious when looking at the camshaft.

So the cam is OK, how is the fit in both bushes, particularly the top one.
Also the follower and the rocker and the rocker stud.
I got caught out with a rocker that was badly worn at the pivot point as was the adjuster / pivot nut.
That mower went in & out of the shop on an almost monthly basis.
Eventually I bushed the top hole for the camshaft fitted a new stud rocker pivot nut.
To my surprise the new ones were nothing like the older ones.
As this was a mower the previous owner "refurbished" I assumed it was mismatched parts.
