Burnt Cam lobes??

I went into my archive and found this picture of my engine with the cover off when I performed my first valve job. This is a 2009 with 40K miles on it (at that time) and I have always used Mobil 1 0W-30. I performed another valve adjustment last year with 60K miles and there was no change in appearance and one minor adjustment needed.
I wanted to see what my cam shafts looked like. It does appear that the rough unfinished parts are darker in color.

that Is very impressive.
I feel the need to peer into my valve train for the hell of it & also check again after 6k miles <replacement engine>
and I also like doing it,
its a wear related item/s and a performance .!!
Desmodromic I wish

Took another pic in a better light
I'm no expert but these cam shaft bolts don't look touched to me
