Oil Flow regarding Head

Old School · 03-11-2012, 08:57 PM

Let me catch you up to my scenario before I ask my question. I recently took the head off my GZ to find that the cam shaft was trashed, bearings shot. The head looked like it had not seen oil or any other lubricant in years. I don't want to put a new head on it and have the same problem with oil flow. I understand there is an oil pump in these engines. Has anyone ever seen this due to a blockage preventing oil from reaching the head or is this a general symptom of a bad oil pump?
