rtv ftw

sounds like the hole or shaft are getting worn down due to excessive play

RTV is your issue.

Pull the VC off.

Pull out the distro

unbolt the cam cover and oil squirter.

apply rtv

replace cover.. rtv over the top for the vc to press down

re install all parts back

I had the same issue and the rtv fixxed it 100%
