Intake cam seized, shitty day for me.

[a1320honda]

So the other night at about 1:30am i was on the freeway cruising at about 75mph when the engine just died. I coasted about 1 mile and got off the freeway and popped the hood to find out that the oil line for the ls.vtec had somehow burst and i lost all the oil pressure for the head, which caused the intake cam to bind and seize and snap the timing belt. While i was waiting for a tow i tore into it and found that it didnt look that bad, but im no expert. So im sure it bent some valves. Ive got a full set of skunk2 titanium valves. My question is....the head is repairable, right? Heres the pic. this is all im worried about. it doesnt look too bad to me. I think i can just polish the cam journal and put the valves in and be ok. What do you guys think? What would be the easiest way to fix this, besides taking it to a head shop (im broke)?

This is the only bad spot on the head.
