Anyone know what causes this? I have a 4.6l shortblock and took the pan off to find fine metal shavings in it. I noticed that one or more of the rods are rubbing agaist the crank. Obviously that's an issue but I'd like to get some input before I decide what I want to do with it.
Also I tried the search thing and didn't come up with anything

Stock bottom end or was it rebuilt?

Manley rods and cobra crank. Used to be boosted if it matters

Thrust bearing controls crankshaft end play. Its most likely causing it to walk.

Depends on how much material was removed. Most likely, no.
