tearing apart my old motor just to see why it was knocking so bad when i took it out, i came across this

pulled off the head and found this? notice it is missing parts of it. surpisingly i still have perfect hashmarks down the cylinder wall on all cylinders

pulled off the oil pan to see chunks of metal all over the place

then i pulled the bearings off and they didnt come off with the journals initially, just glad to be able to pull them off and not have them welded to the crank.

trying to figure out what the fuck failed... any ideas?

Looks like that cylinder was running lean.
