I was thinking something like this as well. You could also try
rechecking the rod big-end torque settings. More straws...

The only thing I can think of is that the bearing clearances are a bit
"big", as the cold pressure is acceptable and the pump seems to be working.
It may be a good idea to ask the shop that did the motor for the inspection
sheet and the parts list for the job. I suppose it's possible to fit stock
bearings on a .010"-under crank and have this happen. Grasping at straws...
