Default 85 Accord camshaft failure...suspected causes?

Hello,

New to the forum. I have an 85 honda accord with the CVCC motor, 194K miles and I just broke the camshaft right behind the pulley assembly. No signs of oil starvation or binding and not valve clearance problems. Does anybody have any suggestions before I go buy a new cam and go through all that work? Thanks for the help!

Mike
