Ouch!

Can't suggest anything other that what has already been said. Do you think (other than the rear bearing) the bearings had any oil other than assembly lube?

If the rear bearing is ok, the pump must be ok.

Checked the passages at the rear of the block? (see my previous reply - it's a long shot but would cause the failure you have experienced.)
