Did they forget to put in the thrust bearings? Or did they slip out? Saw this on a motor I took apart and the cranck lobe had worn into the block about 1/4 inch! Metalic oli of course.....everywhere.

Hi Dick I've got an oil guage as well, and its running about the same as usual... (never been very good). I think there may always have been excessive big end clearance, as I only got the crank polis
