Valve train noise

The rocker galling is something I'd be a little concerned about, I take it these are not bushed rockers.
How loose are the rockers on the shafts now? Honing them back to round makes the hole larger.

The rockers are not bushed that is correct. After honing there is very minimal play on the shaft. I measured about 0.002 to 0.003 thou clearance no less. I a way its a good thing oil flow. It made no difference before and after anyway. But I'm glad I pulled it apart and cleaned the surfaces. They slide like they are on ball bearings.
