Just got the word back from the dealership. They have determined it's a broken rocker arm @ this point. The parts are on order from the Charlotte factory, should be here(in Chattanooga, Tn) Monday(Tuesday @ the latest). You can just barely see the push rod in the one pix. But the Gm tech said, it showed no sign of damage. Plus, looking back thru the achives of the OBDII(I suppose) he also, told mr the rocker arm broke while the engine was only turning @ 900RPM(this is no misprint, 9 hundred RPM).
As you can see by the pix above, some(or alot really) of the needle bearings are missing.
Build Date: 03/08
Thanks again,
Don
