Before you change oil and filter, add a bottle of engine wash to clean the engine, run for say 5 minutes. I take the car for a short run and then change the oil and filter. Might need several treatments, but if the lifters are just stuck this will work. Then just add your normal oil after. You can do treatments back to back.

How do you remove a cam that's stuck on a 350 Chevy engine?

Depending on what's actually stuck, you may have to pull the rear freeze plug and drive the cam out. Must have the lifters completely out of the way and the timing chain removed. If the cam is stuck to a cam bearing, driving out the cam will ruin the cam bearings, and you may have to cut them off from underneath.
