I have seen that a couple times in the past.
I figured it was a factory salvage job of a block that something was wrong with.
I would do some close checking before using that block. Check the center line distance between cam line and main line end to end.
Cam bearings can be made from bar or tubing stock out of aluminum or bronze.
