At two hundred thousand miles the bottom end if well cared for is like new on these engines.

As the other fellows said it looks to have been run low or without oil.

And that said you will need to go completely through it as there will be bearing trash in all passages and worn parts such as cam cam chain and oil pump.

Sorry.
