Is it just me or does it seem that it is always the no# 5 rod or main bearing that seems to have a problem with oiling. The crank could probably be turned and if too far gone could always be welded up and then reground, but that starts to cost $$$. I hope you have that in writeing about it being a rebuildble core in case you need it Lu.
