Has a fuel pump there it has it. Newer electric fuel pump trucks may not. But same applies to the small block 6's and 4's. Once they had a factory electric. They rough cast it but never bored the hole to fit the rod.

Push rod must have a mushroomed end. What style cam is in the engine? HR, flat tappet?

Look for the 7/16" missing from that rod. You should get this one from Summit, Carter PR-1 - Carter Mechanical Fuel Pump Pushrods # CTR-PR-1 $11.97 this one is chrome moly with no bronze tips.

No bronze tip pushrod needed on a flat tappet cam!! I hope it didn't eat up the lobe.
Next question is...where is all that metal that's missing from the pushrod??

i was wondering the same thing about where is all the bronze then i looked at the push rod some more it literally looks like the bronze was smashed in the push rod. If not it must of broke apart while it was running. I drained the oil and ran it in a strainer. I found some small parts of bronze like metal but i was not sure about it. I put new oil in it and i have normal oil pressure. I don't know what else to do as far as all the extra metal.

Shaun, is that pushrod hollow? If so, seein your not gonna use it again, cut it and see if you can push the bronze piece out of it. 7/16" of metal is a lot to lose. I know those bronze ends are not that long.
