I don't know exactly how, but the debris from a wiped cam seems capable of getting in a lot of places it shouldn't. Perhaps the filter was so plugged after the debris it burped its bypass valve and let some unfiltered oil through. It should be cleared out by now.
I spun a bearing and after disassembling the lifters , hyd cam and lifter only had 800 miles on then , I found metal INSIDE the lifters , the oil pump was trashed .
I have the rod and mains from an engine that had the cam lobes just start to go away , schubeck lifters so the cam never wiped , the rod bearings are trashed .
Flattening lobes and just changing the oil along with the cam and lifters is just asking for trouble .
