Help me ID this Cam. Lazer?

I tried searching for lazer cam but I think that they are out of business.

Cam is a mechanical roller. Font has:

296A
305E

LC by the timing chain dowl and a 6 across from that.

I measured the base circle at .900 intake ~ 1.318 and exhaust ~ 1.275 so
.627/.562 with 1.5 rockers. I thought that it was hydraulic roller, but after researching the crower lifters I have with them I'm pretty sure it is mechanical. Since it mechanical I can slap it back together and degree the cam for more accurate specs, since hydraulics can't be dialed in w/o a solid lifter.
