Oil pump problems on those engines is almost always blown out gaskets due to warpage on the bottom cover of the pump. Straighten it out, sand it smooth and make a small reinforcement bar to go across the area where it warps.

Early blocks did not use any camshaft bearings. The cam rides directly in the block bores. Later engines in that series used a bearing for only the front journal. They all use a bearing for the governor/distributor drive gear.
