Make sure everything's accounted for! Stuff could fall down one of the 4 oil drains in the head down into the crankcase.
The cam is a PITA to extract from the housing without damaging anything in my experience. The front bearing flange must be removed, the lifters must be removed, and any bolts or other stray parts must be removed as well. From there, it's just gently rotating and pulling straight out, being careful not to nick the bearings in the housing with the cam lobes. The bearing clearances are pretty tight, so moving the bearing surfaces on the cam through the bearings in the housing until it's completely free is tedious.
