Thanks guys! Sam & J-Mech, nope as per the manual, the cam bearing away from the flywheel is splash lubed. Wow, I thought about drilling and running an external lube line but there are probably a million of these out there that run fine.
If you see something I'm doing wrong let me know. I'm still learning.
Started assembly with the crank first.
I'm using this assembly lube. Is this stuff any good?

This crank was from a different engine(B48G) but I used the original shim and torqued it down to spec and ended up with .009 end play. Spec was 0.006-0.012.

Here are the new style rods. They don't have the oil hole that points up towards the cam and also have a solid beam. There is a little notch in the casting that points up at the cam. You can see the notch at about the 4oclock position.

Got the rods & pistons in and torqued to spec. I used red Loctite on the nuts.
