Even if the light isn't on, since it has come on several times the code will probably be there. Get it checked anyways.

On these car's it's impossible for a bad O2 to cause a random misfire. If there's an O2 code then it won't allow the P0300 to set.

You just replaced your camshafts... I'm guessing you mean aftermarket cams right? You more than likely need to make timing adjustments for them.
