I was bored so I pulled the passenger side head off. This... really doesn't look that bad, at least to my un trained eye. Certainly not the nightmare it looked like on the borescope. I don't quite understand how it looked dreadful on camera yet looks almost fine to my eye but I'll take it.

It does show wear and on a rebuild, you'll want the size measured and determine if a hone and re-ring will be within specs.
The main hurdle you need to get past is the block being taken down to absolute bare and thoroughly cleaned to remove all the metal particles and debris from the cam failure. Any less than meticulously clean and there could be particles left in the block to score new crank and cam bearings.
