I am sure mine wasn't worn or eroded, it sure looks like it was made that way, but if I am starving my mains, I want to try to fix it. I have had real good luck with JB weld for engine repairs, so could probably put a patch on with that.
Mine is also as you describe and you can see in the photos post #6 above that i have plenty of oil.
