my mustang has a b&m supercharger on a v8 302. will supercharger cause the camshaft to wear ? or would that just be a bad oil pump problem ?. I'm sure the 302 motor could take that kind ov power correct ?

The supercharger will not affect the camshaft wear; they are not directly connected. You could take the supercharger off the car and the camshaft would not be able to sense that it was not present.
