"It's got a vane oil pump but uses cups on the rods to help pressurize tubes in the pan. That pressurized oil is then added to the oil from the pump to go to the top end."
You are WAY overthinking that... the individual splash troughs are simply kept running over full by the oil feed tubes.
Older engines that simply depended upon splash lube without the tubes and troughs could lose bearings going up or down hill because the rod(s) at the high end wouldn't have oil to dip into.
Ford Model "T's" would be one example.
Knowledgeable drivers would BACK up a steep hill because they would oil all the rods better, as the oil wouldn't move back from the pan to the flywheel housing/transmission/wet clutch area, leaving the front rods high and dry.
