Hi I've had my predator 212 for some time and always knew the previous owner did some mods to it like billet rod and I believe bigger valve spring but recently I've been wondering about my cam, I am not sure if my cam is original or not as some of the oem cams have waffled textured rivets head while some don't I will post some old and bad photos of the cam the last time I opened my engine if anybody knows please let my know what kind of cam I have thanks.

Correct.ion : No way to tell by looking at the rivets or ID numbers .
Check the lift with a caliper . Base circle dimension subtracted from the nose dimension.
check duration with a dial indicator and degree wheel .
 
I believe you have to set up a degree wheel and indicator and you probably still won't be able to tell.
Just buy one you want from Dyno Cams for about 50.00 then you will know what you have.
 
So there is no way to tell by the picture what kind of cam it is, what does a stock hemi cam look like cause maybe I could compare mine to a stock, I don't know just throwing ideas out there.
No.
1.Get your self a degree wheel and dial indicator
2. Watch ARC video
3. Learn how to profile cam
