I don't know if this what you are asking, but, it is a shaft, made of cast iron. It will often have a gear somewhere on it, used to drive the distrutor, and again often, have an eccentric used to activate the fuel pump. Then, you have the lobes. They control the valve timing, as well as opening, and closing them. These are an egg shaped surface, in which a lifter, or follower ride on. The breakdown of a lobe, is the base circle, which is the flat part, or the portion of which nothing happens. Then, there is the ramp, which is the portion that raises the valve open, and leads to the tip of the lobe, or maximum lift is achieved.
