Personally switch all the rods/pistons and bearings, slap your friend in the face and have a machine shop check for further damage

yah it's rare that only one rod will go .
just te stress of no oil on the rest of rods could have weekend them

a rod letting go can bend valves . gouge you cylinder walls and worse .

like said before get a machine shop to check it out

It's been through the machine shop already. Both the head and the block. The engine ran probably not even 5min without oil. I took the engine to a couple of shops nd got the same feed back. They told me I'm lucky and changing that rod will do. That's plus the piston rings, water pump, oil pump, bearings etc
