It would have to wear through the lead layer 1st to get to the copper in the rod bearings. [edit] Unless the lead had been worn through prior to the oil reports.
Your lead readings are zero so it can't be from them. Not sure where the copper is coming from really, maybe a bronze bush(es) wearing somewhere? Can't think off hand what would have them....
Ask them where they think it could come from.
