The double chamfer combined with the full grooved mains is likely what killed it.. Here's some pics of various Callies, Manley, and GM for reference.

The one jornal at themain is very slightly discolored, the picture makes it look worse, but you are right.

The rods were brand new. The only thing reused at the time of the build was the block, and the crank...that was modified.

The last 3 pics are of the new crank and how the oiling hole should look.

More cams - you have to look close to see what it going on.
