Given what we know about the oiling system, I'd be more inclined to believe
your cam oilers are clogged.  IIRC others have had this happen with clogged
oiling tubes (with new cams).  Also, given this is only happening on one
side would also make me lean that direction.

I suppose it's *possible* the billet was bad from Nissan, but that
possibility seems awfully remote.  How did you break them in?
