Good point Mark. If the pump siezed I bet the drive rod looked like a piece of twisted ornamental wrought iron...

Check your timing chain for slack, consider replacing the front and rear main seals. Done now, you won't have to go back in after them anytime soon if at all!

Definitely do the bearings, that mill was turning with absolutely ZERO oil in the mains.

I better mention one other thing- look at the screen in your oil pump pickup tube/strainer. I knew a guy once who had so much junk in his oil pan that it sucked the screen into the strainer and dumped a whole load of crud right into the pump, which siezed it, therefore the the thought process leading to me mentioning it.

I thought it sounded awful familiar..
