Slight pitting on intake camshaft lobes - N55

I'm currently doing my valve cover gasket and have noticed that all of my intake camshaft lobes have slight pitting.

It looks much worse than it is, I can't really feel the odd zig zagging pattern with my finger and the pits themselves feel pretty smooth to the touch. No nail-catching ridges or anything.

Is this a big deal? The car has about 62k miles and is just over 12 years old at this point.

The images are bigger and clearer on imgur.
