Just did the first oil change on the wife’s Trans Am since we bought it and I was greeted by this. Still runs normally. Seems to have a small skip to it though. Time to drop the oil pan, upgrade the rocker trunnions, and cross my fingers.

I guess it’s a known issue on early LS engines. The wife’s T/A only has 34k on it. The needle bearings in the rockers walk a bit and can fall out. My ‘04 GTO by comparison has 123k on it, and no such issues. They must’ve fixed it.

Makes me feel a minuscule amount better about my shavings.
