crane shows 8620 I'm sure this is on all there race rollers
then they list a 9310 grade steel I'm assuming this might be in there
street solid rollers and there hydraulic rollers.
Are you sure hydraulic rollers made out of steel an iron gear would work.

And so....
After talking to someone a little more knowledgeable at comp...
They say the cam is cast, and austempered and that no worry, just use the stock gear. He specifically warned against using the bronze gear as its designed to be sacrificial.
