closely at the Two drive chains (Timing/Camshaft and Oil Pump) and their sprockets.

If it's "Spun One" there'll be metal fragments everywhere.You must make sure
that all the fragments are GONE.Do not forget the Oil Cooler,it's on the Pre-Filter side of the Lubrication circuit.
I phone my friend and immediately instructed him to tell his mechanic to make SURE he doesn't use the old oil cooler and lines from his old car.... thanks for that tip!
