From the oil pump, through the block to the first main, then through the journal to the rods, then through the journal to the next main, ect.

Chevy 350. Small block vs long block?

"small block" typically distinguishes between a 2 bolt and 4 bolt main. (Small block= 2 bolt main. Big/large block=4 bolt main) "long block" typically distinguishes between a rebuilt engine that has heads, rockers, rocker covers, oil pump, pan... in other words, complete, versus just block, crank, cam and pistons (short block).
