Default h23a1 cam journal tolerances, head toast?

I have a head that was glass beaded, all of it. The machine shop just did it for some dumbass reason. I have tightened the cam caps to the specified amount, but the cam seems to be very loose. I used 5w30 when assembling it. when I pull up on the cam gear I can hear and see the oil squishing out when the cam moves!!! Did the shop ruin the head by glass beading it?

Also the cam spins just like the very easily, like the caps are not bolted on.
