Did the bearing caps have any shim stock between them?

The stuff in the pan could be cylinder block material where the rings plateaued the cylinder walls, just a guess.

All rod and main bearings had a 100thou spacer and one rod had one little brass shim left. She is wore out. Babbit still there so may mic and polish crank, repour rods etc and buy a shim kit from The Filling Station, clean it up, hone, ring. Chiity Chitty Bang Bang

I learned the cranks bend easy so they suggest spin it in a lathe and check runout. If bent, pry it back straight and roll on. Uncle Jed

A place called Egge machine use to have parts for those engines. I my memory serves me correctly they had connecting rods that were converted for inserts. I took a restoration class in the 70s and toured there facility. .
