you cannot tell anything about the cam from those photos, just that you have poly locks which is good but thats all i can tell, if you were to pull the cam out and had dial calipers or some means by which to measure the lobe we(the forum) may be able to help more.

Nope, those rocker arm nuts are not original BUT those steel umbrella shields on the valve springs are. I never see anyone use them after the first valve job.
