Drop the oil pan and clean off the crankshaft / rods / mains with brake cleaner. Look for discolored [ blue ] on rod caps , main caps , or crank shaft. If no discoloration start pulling rod caps [ keep 'em in order for reassembly ]. If no rod bearings are turned or stuck go to the main bearing caps and look for a bad bearing there. How'd the oil turn gray?? cylinder liner leaking coolant into crankcase ?? Sounds to me like a good candidate for an overhaul...
