Am no expert here, but if it's only one bank, and not just a single lifter I would question if oil is circulating efficiently.

just presuming its more then one too be honest :-/
daz rebuilt the top end so that will be ok :y
they was plenty of oil in there when it was stripped
the engine was full of cr*p when i got it but has had atleast 5 oil changes since fitted :y
is it possible that one of the stem seals could have moved or been damaged due to the tapping ???

anybody ??
