Thanks for your help Rick. I have no play in the rod that i could feel when it was appart. Ajusted valves down to 0.002 inch still had the noise but i did not check the push rods for loose ends, will do it tonight. Does anyone know what your engine parts look like after they are damaged by chrome flakes ??
Ed

Hi Ed ,I have rebuilt many motors,but Iam fairly new to moto guzzi.I have not seen to many upper rod bearing that bad .Taking the wrist pin in and out should have no effect on the upper rod bushing.When you put the pin in the bushing is their any up and down play?
I have worked on two moto guzzi motors and each had one push rod with a loose end? something else to think about,,,,,,,,,how about valve guide to valve,should not have much more than .002. tops.
