It's probably bad. It's a bit of a chore to change but not a big deal. Check out the heads/cam swap tutorial on jmX's web site to see how you can get to the pulley since that's part of the process to change the cam.

Actually, not a bad time to put that new cam and new springs in if you're considering it for the future.
