FWIW.....I bought an NOS RAV camshaft off ebay years ago that was just listed as a PONTIAC CAMSHAFT. It was not in the factory tube, and I noticed it had the small distributor gear out back and the tail tail RA II, IV, V magenta paint mark. I knew exactly what it was by those two observations. I was the only bidder and got it for $50.
I have used this method for years to search out ram air Pontiac parts at swap meets.
