Oy Vey, someone should really straighten out this whole thing before it all goes to hell. If metal got to your mains then it no doubt got to the cam. I have a ruined cam and crank to prove it. As for the oil, I have cans of oil going back at least 30 years, doesn't mean I'll dump it into any engines of mine just because it has additives or whatever else that is not around anymore. I just put any old conventional oil in the L98 and changed it twice in less than 500 miles on the bottom end rebuild. All good. But that is all I will say, someone else can do the lecture for newer engines, I haven't done any newer ones.
