suit yourself but you're just asking for more scrap metal to clean
out of the oil channels and risking a lot more damage to the cylinder...
   old school thinking is knock on acceleration is crank bearings;
        knock on deceleration is rod bearing....
     have you pulled either of the rocker covers or oil filter
looking for small bits of white metal?

Yep.  Haven't seen any... yet.

So no metal in the oil? Piston slap?
