I'm wondering if I should do this to have some confidence and peace of mind that it is a non-issue. I don't have a durametric yet so I can't test the cam shaft for deviation /alignment per Wayne's book. I would appreciate your wisdom.
Thanks

You probably should do it since you are concerned (rightfully so) you don't have to change your oil just pull your filter out and examine it and if it is ok then put it back in. no harm no faul
