For those that can't quite believe me when I've spoke about the Gerotor type oil pump being the largest source of copper through analysis in these engines maybe you can believe Moroso .
These gerotor type pumps also have much more suction capability than the other style so since there is a TSB out on the o'ring leaking on the oil pick-up tube , those that have lifter tick at idle reallly should check into the O'ring TSB ..... no kidding . It needs be looked at IMO .

My post is just in effort for the LS1 owners to better understand their engines and where copper wear sources from and to help remove some fiction and replace with fact
