Cams shafts

Does any one know for sure what a 87 TA GTA 5.7 engine uses for a cam shaft? A stock hydralic or is it a roller cam? Need to replace but with which one?

All 87+ Chevy small blocks (Gen II) had one piece rear mains and a lifter valley drilled to accept the spider, which located the roller lifters.

From the factory, it should have a hydraulic roller cam in it.
