I have a 292 that I rebuilt and when I went to start the engine the oil squirted out of the oil filter between the oil filter and engine like the oil passage was blocked. I tore the engine back down, all the oil galleys are free, bearings line up with oil hole, the heads line line with the oil passage ways and rocker arms oil passage way line up, replaced the oil filter, check the relief on the oil pump seems to move freely. Started the engine up again and same problem. Everything is rebuilt or new on the engine including oil pump. Any thoughts on what could be the problem? The engine is a 1959 and has a spin on filter
