You will need to host the photo someplace like photobucket.

Can't see the photo.

Sounds like forged crank bearings in a cast crank engine.
Vote #2 for a photo.

He did have pics over at FABO but they are gone now. It did look, to me, like a cast crank block with forged main bearings.

Yes... you are showing a forged crank main bearing insert. (2 oil feed holes)
Go get a set of mains for a 76 and newer SL6, that should fix it.
(also check your con rod bearings... those are also different for the cast crank engine)
