The cams push down on rocker arms which pivot, and push down the valves. It looks similar to an OHV engine's setup, except the rockers are ancored at one end, touch the valve on the other end, and get pushed by the cam in the middle. I don't think any OHC engines act directly on the valve stems...I could be totally wrong, though.
