Figured its about time for an update, and the new news is aluminum shavings in the bottom of the oil pan.
This could be bad, but we will see. The front is opened up and the chain/guides look normal. No obvious problems is the head or underneath. Gonna have to dig a little deaper to see whats happening. I have my fingers crossed that I had just a slight loss of pressure and cooked a rod bearing with out really screwing this motor up.
Good news it hasn't blown any black or blue smoke..
