#2 rod is A&F's busted rod. Geneman's rod is #5. Pretty much the same deal either way. #2 and #5 are in the middle of the crank and get oil fed to them last. That's because the rods are fed oil from the ends of the crank and the oil travels inward from there.
The obvious question is why did it happen? Lots of engines have been run hard for years with a stock crank and no major problems. So it'd be good to know what caused the oil starvation at the rods last to get oil on the crank.
