You got that right. The only person that had any first hand experience was driven off this thread and the only reason that I can think of now, is that the things you mentioned can continue on.
I'll add that from the view point of the OP I have found allot of great information that has provided me with a knowledgeable perspective on my Honda Pilot engine dilemma that I would not have found otherwise. I have read every word, appreciate every post, and all in all have found it to be quite valuable. I have also had the good fortune to communicate with Trav offline and he also remains quite helpful. There have been some pretty strong common theories, mostly around what happens with an engine that runs hot in the front cylinder bank, and a maintenance minder that takes conventional oil over 10,000 miles in this hot engine. When you boil everything down, (excuse the pun) I think it paint a pretty clear picture of what happened here. The dealer is suppose to have the new cam in my engine today and I'll let you know how she runs.
