The cam is fixedly mounted to the camshaft to rotate with the camshaft, the cam having a contact surface and a lateral wall facing in an axial direction of the camshaft towards the discharge orifice. The lubricant conducting device is arranged to direct oil over the lateral wall of the cam towards the contact surface.
