Cam wear question…

Installing new lifters in my 05 BMW 330ci and I see some wear on the exhaust cam bearings and some small pitting on two lobes.

Trying to save some money and this being a weekend/some track car, what do you think?

The cam box and bearing caps are good, except one slight scoring.

Replace or go with it.

Edit: should I try to fill the lifter before install or turn the engine over without starting to build up oil pressure in the lifters (and engine)?
