I?m sure the engine needs to come out now, there is a lot of copper in the filter and the pick up screens that needs explaining. What are the symptoms of bad mains? Thoughts? I?m guessing mains but it?s gonna be a week or 2 before I get the engine out and know for sure.

Do you have pics of all the bearings? I saw your pic of the two bearings, but very interested to know how the condition of the others are.
Hoping my flake issue does not progress to this.
