My top oil galley wasn’t drilled all the way so it wouldn’t feed the lifters…

My new BBM block { 2022} would not allow hardly any oil up to the rockers on the pass side when I first primed it, thought maybe the one cam bearing was installed wrong but that was not the case, and the head gasket hole  for the oil passages was fine also. just ended up oiling through the pushrods instead  {thanks Brent} has been good for 3 years now.
