Yeah - someone made a good point  - the top end looks BONE DRY.
What's the reason for that?
was it somehow cleaned up before the picture was taken?  (if so, I'd love to
know how)

Someone who knows more about the oiling paths than me might be able to
comment on whether or not it is possible that there are blockages in the
system that still allow for normal oil pressure readings even though little
/ no oil is getting out to where it needs to go.



Sorry to read / see your bad news.
