Default Camshaft identification

Are there markings on a camshaft that designated what cam it is? I have a 95 fatboy and i am installing a cam in it, but before i order my cam I would like to know what it has in it. I pulled my nose cone and am looking for markings on the gear but can't find any... Other then the alignment marks. The motor has been replaced as it has s&s cases.... Has solid pushrods, appears to be stock heads, stock lifters... Had a sportster ignition module... Bike had a super g carb when I got it, but I changed to a super e cause the g was too big.... Anyway got my nose come off looking for markings so I don't downgrade when purchasing cam.

If it was a stock cam it should have an "N" stamped on the end of the cam shaft itself, not on the gear.

Alright, I'll pull the cam out tomorrow and inspect.... Not a big fan of "exploratory surgery" but gives me something to do during the winter

Well it has a N on the last lobe. I went ahead and got new lifters, EZ install pushrods, EV27 cam, bearing on the way. Also installed a dyna 2000hde ignition and 80,000 volt 3 ohm coil....can't wait to wake it up some
