Even if it doesn't work it's an interesting idea. I think in some ways its going to work like a 'cracked' or 'fractured' rod if you've ever seen those. On cracked rods the interface between the two parts is rough like your broken cam and allows the use of a smaller rod bolt because of the peaks and valleys of the fracture resisting shear forces. So as long as the bolt you use has enough tensile force to keep the fractured ends together tight then the fractured ends will resist the torsional forces. It might be fun to do some napkin calculations to see if it will work...
