You'll notice on the second picture where there is a fresh machined area around the perimeter of the cap. If you look at original rods, you'll see that Ford did it the same way. They also took material off the small end of the rod by turning the bushing area on both sides. Just take a bit of time checking out an original rod and you can see exactly what I'm talking about.
