Is it possible to determine what cam is inside the 2.0 liter four cylinder motor I just purchased, without splitting the cases. Can a dial gauge on the rocker arms and degree wheel on the flywheel be used to measure the cam lift and profile. Are any cam markings visible without splitting the cases. The engine was last run with carbs, but no history of whether or not the cam was ever changed. I'd prefer not to disturb the bottom end if possible. Tried a search, but couldn't find anything.

I have been told the easiest way is to remove oil pump, examine the drive gear mounting. if it is riveted to cam, probably stock. if it is bolted, the cam has been replaced.
