Cavitation

Can someone explain how 'evidence of Cavitation' in the HP fuel pumps is being considered here?

Is it that the pump is trying to pump from an obstructed source causing bubbles (cavities) in the fuel or that there is evidence that the pumps are physically damaged?

What will be the evidence of cavitation? assuming THIS is a good explanation of such?
