Default Re: Distributor Seized

So I tore into everything and removed the oil pan to be sure I got all of the broken pieces. I turned the engine over by hand and inspected the cam gears. They look ok, so I definitely got lucky. I pulled the front and side timing cover to look at the famous-to-fail cam gear. I looks to have been replaced once, due to the lock nut has chisel marks on it. I ordered a new aluminum cam gear to replace the fiber one since I have everything apart anyway.
Anybody recommend any other major preventative action besides completely rebuilding the whole motor? lol
