Default Inner cam bearing failure.

Buddies DWG rear inner cam bearing failed and I am wondering where all the needles went? Took out pump, plate and rear cam. Need suggestion for cleaning out the cases.

Thanks Tom

Might have been tossed during that least 1 or 2 oil changes.

Got any pics of the area?

Pull the crank sensor and look closely to see if there are any marks. Most likely the cases will need to be split to remove the needles from the crank case. I would bet that the crank bearings are also toast...
