The thing is though....after I think about this....the bearings will not tell all tales.....if there has been no oil to the top of the engine, the cam lobes are probably worn along with the lifters.....needless to say the rod bearings are probably not in good shape.

You had someone build this engine for you? Was it an engine shop? Reason I'm asking.....if it's trashed, you'll have some recourse.
