chipped bottom oiler ring

[jimmy450]

Hello Everyone....

I just put my motor back together......just put intake and exhaust cam in and a JE phigh compression piston in and got it started it was running..... i thought i could hear something so i tore it all back down to see nothing..??????? started to put it back together and i noticed that the BOTTOM OILER RING WAS BROKEN!!!! about 3/4" ...... any idea where it might have gone i checked it with a magnet ....clutch side or flywheel???? No marks in the cylinder....oil filter clean? maybe oil line ...or oil tank screen?... Thanks for any help that you can give would be great!!!!!
