That's what I suspected, the two furthest away from the oil pump. Were you high revving your engine a lot? There's nothing implicitly wrong with that since the engine was designed to rev that high, but with a 145k old oil pump, oil starvation comes to mind.

Good luck with the rebuild and keep us posted. Don't forget a new oil pump!!!
