I'm questioning why the camshaft sprocket was replaced. It's not a wear item and not something that would go bad, unless the shop damaged or broke it in the process of repairs.

as i just found out the woodruff keys are prone to chipping and breaking. could be they broke it trying to remove the harmonic balancer or just found it already damaged. gotta remove the sprocket to change the key. i had to drill & tap mine and use a puller to get it off necessitating a new one.

The harmonic balancer is on the crankshaft, not the camshaft. Someone would have to be pretty careless to break a camshaft sprocket, they just aren't that difficult to remove.
