If the plug was out and no pressure, you were not getting any oil to the bearings. I'd worry about that more than the rockers.

I checked rockers and also bearings last night and everything was fine. Runs perfect and is very smooth. Oh and quiet. From what I could tell lower end was getting oil

Last night, you pulled the oil pan, checked all of the bearings and drove it today?

I must be getting old.

And if the front plug was out, you were not getting oil to the bearings.

Back in the 70s I installed a fresh 440 in a 68 GTX, and had the same problem.
A chevy shop had hot tanked the motor and not replaced the plugs..

The customer drove the car for a week before we found the problem..No oil gauge..(back when there was one car and you drove it or didnt get to work).

No long term problems with that engine..Ran High 12s the next summer..

There's some oil flowing to the rods and mains, not a whole lot but sometimes enough, as long as ya ain't sticking your foot in it.

That's great have Fun.

I was following this but someone had already suggested looking for a missing plug. Glad you got it sorted before any major damage was done.

Yes I do have a lift so took center link out , popped pan off and everything right there. I said looked like lower end was getting oil because rods were dripping oil, pulled bearings and everything was still new looking. I didn't notice any damage on anything. These motors are more durable than you guys give them credit. As far as being lucky I didn't feel so lucky when I tore the top end off then the bottom and the following morning the front. I'm pretty motivated when I want to get something done.

Don't forget that the rod bearing that takes a beating when there is no oil pressure is the top half, not the bottom half I made a rod bearing tap by running the oil level low on the first Mopar I owned, going up a hill and kick it down into passing gear and about halfway up the hill the oil light flickered and the rod tapping started I had pulled a small piece out of one of the rod bearing bottom half and it rolled up into wedge making a large slot in the center of the bearing, it went tap, tap, tap until I had them all replaced by a local shop I have since seen a lot of rod bearings become junk due to low or no oil pressure, I have had the oil bypass plug come out of two mtors in high gear above 5500 RPM, the oil pressures go away in a hurry, one time I had three upper bearing shells marked up and the other time it got all of them On the bad one I didn't have a oil light and kept my foot in it for the last three hundred feet, on the first one I heard the plug bounce off of the headers and looked down at the oil pressure gauge, it was dropping so I push the nuetral button (1963 Plymouth 426 M.W.) and turn the ignition switch off right away, three uppers still got damamged
