can you identify these parts and look at all these issues found during teardown

So i tore the motor apart yesterday and found out the car had a cam (from the previous owner) i have no idea what it is can someone help the markings on the end of the cam are lt1 3108/284 HR14 t2284 cc

also trying to figure out what pistons these are there are 4 valve reliefs and on the underside they say mahle 101v13 G8121

i have tried to do some searching to figure it out but cannot come up with anything.

also when tearing everything down noticed all the rod bearings had what looked like a hot spot on the tops, copper was even showing through on a couple.

the other problems found during teardown was a valve not seating properly on #6 exhaust due to really worn out guides. #3 oil ring looked to have been assembled poorly and the top metal ring had come out and bent up gouging the cylinder badly. so 355 here i come. looks like i will be getting a new crank as well seeing as the rod bearings were 20 over and the mains 10 over.

my biggest problem is i dont have a lot to spend on this and it is my dd. what kind of prices do you guys figure on things like block work, head work, etc?

I believe the cam is a Comp Cam, the pistons are (obviously) Mahle. Try calling them, I'm sure their tech guys could figure out the casting #s for you

The stock pistons are made by Mahle, and also say "Brazil" on them..... possibly the originals.

This sheet has the specs for the 101V13:

thanks guys, another buddy was able to find some info on the cam, it is an old comp grind very small, he couldnt remember spcifics but it was smaller than the hotcam.

now its on to what i need to do, do you happen to notice anything else i might need from this list. machine work: hot tank, .030 over, cam bearings and freeze plugs in the block. heads: valve job, seals, and guides. also check crank and rods (i am probably getting a known good stock crank and rods out of a now 383 that a buddys buddy worked on hopefully for no more than $150). As far as a parts list: pistons (.030 over), main, rod and cam bearings, head bolts, timing set, gasket set. My lifters are very new ls7s and from what i understand now i should get different push rods?

any other opinions on which parts to get for this daily driver, not looking for major hp gains but wont complain if i can do them for the same price i would be looking at otherwise. cost is a HUGE thing. anyway thanks again for all the info and what not.
