As far as the OMP goes, I've read that it takes a pretty damn long time for oil to make its way to the engine through the lines. How long has it been since you put everything back together?

I know its a pain to take the dynamic chamber and upper intake manifold off again but if you are concerned I would think you could take some oil and squirt some into the lines and then connect them to the oil injectors again. I am planning on doing that when its time to put my engine in my car. As for the header glowing red that is just because it is really hot lol. You can wrap your header with heat wrap to help reduce some heat.
