I have an 885 head with bent valves and 2 broken rockers from a snapped timing belt. I'm trying to take the head apart, I took the rockers off and now trying to take off the cam that from what ive read it should just slide out but the cam wont even move. I'm I missing something here?

If the rockers are out of the way/ cam seal housing removed, the only thing I can think of is a low/ no oil pressure issue chewed up the cam bearings. I bought a head one time that looked perfect until the cam cam out.
Since the rocker shafts came out easy, it' shouldn't be too warped.
Good luck.
