The ebay ad actually does specify that the block is a stock 427 block, NOT a cammer.

Can anyone post a good picture of a Cammer with the timing cover and valve covers in place? I'm having a hard time visualizing how the ends of the valve covers would be visable with a cover over those gears.

Here ya go Tommy!
But wait, what IS a 'cammer' block? Let me guess, it's a STOCK side oiler block 'modified' for the rear oil drain. Well I had to 'modify' MY 'stock' side oiler block to run a solid cam instead of a hydraulic cam. I also had to 'modify' my rocker arm stands and use custom pushrods to fit the original High Riser heads. Does this mean my motor is now a 'High Riser' block and not 'stock' anymore? I suspect there is no such thing as a 'Cammer' block per se. Only a stock side oiler block 'tweaked' for specific heads (high rise, tunnel port, etc) or a specific cam selection (like an OHC, or solid or hydraulic) as the need may occur. I suspect it's a very thin line between a 'stock' side oiler block and a 'cammer' side oiler block, either may require specific machining for the intended use.
